About The Prefect
The combination of a tight-knit, driving rhythm section powered by bassist Alex Holmes and drummer Mike Yantha, melodic-yet-progressive guitar riffs compliments of Fraser Holmes and the explosively-energetic stage show of front man Grant Gooley is the “Ferocious Foursome” (quote: The Ottawa Citizen) recognized as The Prefect.
The Prefect was formed in November of 2006 when Grant parted ways with his former group, Ottawa rockers 'Fluid', and joined forces with Alex, Fraser and Mike as their Renfrew-based band ‘Makeshift’ had disbanded around the same time.
With inspiration stemming from a wide variety of musical backgrounds, The Prefect strives to create a sound that grabs and doesn’t let go. With a self-titled 8-track mini album already under their belts, the guys didn’t waste any time on putting the next one together. With the help of a thousand monkeys on typewriters, the band is busy writing like madmen for volume two, with hopes of releasing something totally eargasmic in 2008.
This is shaping up to be a big year for the band and they want you to be a part of it with them.
