Girl Nobody

Opening for Moses Mayes is Vancouver's Girl Nobody. Formed in 1999, Girl Nobody has become one of the few bands that can offer cerebral charm and sexual bravado within a lullaby of pop swoon. The band's stunning live shows, along with their critically acclaimed self-released debut album The Future Isn't What It Used To Be (2004), proved that the hype Girl Nobody had been generating was warranted.Girl Nobody's true strength is their sheer unpredictability. Their live performances has been described as anything from an eerie Berlin cabaret, to electro-pop meets The Who, to adventurous music that sounds more inspired by Kurt Weill than modern pop. Girl Nobody's most recent album, Balaclava Casino Heist, is an exploration of the band's identity. Balaclava is propelled by driving trip-hop and dub beats supporting the ever-present Rhodes piano, Moog and compelling electric guitars. The band's innovative song writing offers fresh variations on the classic structures of pop songs, ballads and dance numbers. “Girl Nobody revels in gorgeous sounds truly intoxicating to hear and barbed with the kinds of hooks that radio can't get enough of.” - Robert Everett-Green, Globe & Mail
