Considering the top 10 hits that GCH have had over the past year I was surprised to see them in such as small and intimate venue however, their show was absolutely packed with hoardes of screaming fans who evidently had been there hours to get the best positions at the front of the stage. Front man Travis McCoy put on an excellent show and whipped the crowd up into a frenzy delighting the first four rows of teenage girls.
Live the band are quite similar to NERD combining commercial rap weaved into familiar funk and rock tracks
with of course the ubiquitous 80’s MOR samples which gel together what otherwise would be fairly dirivitive songs. GCH who are signed to Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz’s Decaydance Label have become a hotbed of talent unearthing some of the more interesting rock and rap acts to emmerge from the mid-West. Their new album “The Quilt” which is their forth features artists as diverse as Busta Rhymes, Estelle and 80’s pop rocker Daryl Hall. The band are currently on a 30 date tour which takes them across the UK, Europe and the US.
