The pride of Brooklyn & unabashed purveyors of prog-80s, lighter-waving, power rock, The Prigs have created a world of unbridled fun. Close your eyes at a show & you might find yourself visualizing images of the E Street Band brawling with The Pogues (after too many shots). But with eyes wide open, you’ll feel like you’re watching a Mardi Gras float detonate in an 11-piece sonic assault. Like any auditory fractal, there is real order in The Prigs’ chaos– these consummate players leave nothing to chance. Born of songs composed by singer/guitarist Mack Price (Kaki King), the Prigs’ triangle was stabilized by the addition of bass player Bill Flynn & saxophonist Evan Smith (both of St. Vincent). The band went through trio, quartet & quintet incarnations, but found that the bigger it got, the better it sounded. Today, an elite team of nine specialists leads a cast of characters in songs featuring overpowering instrumentation, tight, almost prog-inspired arrangements, & a new lyrical sound.
