The Perfect Pursuit

Perfection is an abstract and theoretical concept. It is not a destination that can actually be achieved. But nonetheless, it’s the goal in mind. We all have our own ideas of what perfection means and our own ways of pursuing it. That pursuit is idealistic, but it’s a fundamental part of our humanity. Similarly, The Perfect Pursuit have found that an appropriate description of their "sound" is just as evasive as perfection itself--almost ineffable. However, specific genres or styles are not a concern that comes to mind during their writing process. They draw influence from a sea of unique artists and genres including pop, punk, alternative, and progressive rock/metal. Their music flows with dynamic, powerful, drive. The aggressive guitar riffs, bold bass lines, and polyrhythmic percussion create a formidable progressive beast. But the melodic vocals and cohesive songwriting keep it grounded enough to remain accessible. The band officially started in September of 2009 in Hays, Kansas with founding members, Quincy Scott and Cole Hawks. They soon opted to relocate somewhere a more populated and musically inspired. The transition resulted in a number of line-up changes. Daniel Rhodes and Lori Muilenburg joined the band in late 2011, who both played a part in inspiring a new musical direction for the band. They began playing shows around Kansas. Doug Maxwell joined on bass in early 2013 to complete the current line-up. Throughout 2013 and 2014, with Quincy handling the production, The Perfect Pursuit began recording their first record. On May 21, 2014, they released their debut album, Extraordinary. They began playing shows throughout the Kansas City area, opening for bands such as Lacuna Coil and Touche Amore. As 2015 came around, they began writing material for their second album.
