THE GUFS SIGN WITH ROCKGAMER STUDIOS TO BRING “BEAUTIFUL DISASTER” TO ROCK BAND NETWORK

If you grew up in or around the Milwaukee area, chances are you’ve heard of The Gufs. Right, RockBandAide?

The pop rock band has been building a rabid fan base since 1988, and still features all original members. In that span, they’ve nearly risen to the national spotlight, signed with a major label (Atlantic), produced a hit single with “Smile”, gone indie again, taken a seven-year hiatus, hit the studio again, and released a new album.

Now, a band that formed before the Internet was popular — heck, before the CD was an industry standard — is set to pioneer the Rock Band Network age with its haunting, melodic sounds.

Lead guitarist Morgan Dawley saw a big opportunity to expand The Gufs’ market. In his words, “Making things interactive for our fans is an exciting step into the future for our music, and we are proud to be collaborating with the talented staff at RockGamer Studios on making that future a reality.”

Here at RockGamer we are proud to announce our partnership with The Gufs to author “Beautiful Disaster” from their 2006 album A Different Sea (iTunes).

If you’re a fan of melodic pop-rock to the tune of Coldplay or former tourmates Matchbox Twenty, do yourself a favor and check out their MySpace page to sample their catalogue. You will definitely want to keep an eye out for The Gufs and “Beautiful Disaster”.
