"The Melting Pot of American Music"GAYLORD shows are explosive, funny and furious. Once described as, "P-FUNK meets SLAYER"-(MC Dragon of the Midnight Dragonz) Gaylord has shared the stage and earned the praise of industry greats like: Frank Black of the Pixies, Jon Spencer, Ween, the Sadies, Primus, Marky Ramone, Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction, Alkaline Trio, Japan's Melt Banana, Danielson, Ember Swift, Silkworm and countless others... ...in the begining...GAYLORD was created by childhood friends Jeff Steverson and Core Atoms in the basement of a house on Williamsburg Road, Bologna Town, USA. In an effort to create the music they longed to hear but couldn't find, Jeff and Core sold their Garbage Pail Kid collections, bought instruments and began writing what would turn out to be some of the most original, interesting and challenging music since Beethoven said...Eh??...and then there was light...The Band was born when Core and Jeff teamed up with drummer Brann Dailor (now of MASTODON fame), to record Sparkling Cool and unleash their, genre-less music to the starving ears of the growing Rochester underground music scene....Revelations...On New Years Eve 2000 (with Brann having relocated to Atlanta), the God of Rhythm and Percussion bestowed upon them the brilliance and mastery of drummer Andrew Verstraete (Big Hair, Mungbean Demon, Low Ton), to complete the Gaylord sound. Today Gaylord is the genre melding prog-pop-indie-funk trio that is quickly becoming one of the most sought after bands around. Their eclectic & progressive style has allowed them to gather a devout flock of fans and musicians from across seemingly disparate genres. As CITY magazine put it, "Never has there been a band more poised for success."
