Artist Information
Biography
Gentlemen Hall is six individuals out to deliver pop songs wrapped in unique instrumentation. From flutes to vintage synthesizers, GH is not a typical lineup. Based out of Boston, the band was originally a group of friends with no intentions of making music together. Despite coming from completely different musical backgrounds the sextet was drawn to the the sounds of common artists and found themselves incorporating the implications of the pulsing synth sounds of Depeche Mode, the hallucinatory topics and arrangements of the Flaming Lips, and eclecticism and unique vocal approach of David Bowie.

Gentlemen Hall Wins Billboard's
Battle of the Bands Contest
gentlemen hall Gentlemen Hall drove to Billboard & Chevy's Battle of the Bands live showdown at Las Vegas' Fremont Street Experience on Wednesday (May 18) knowing they were up against tough competition from the five other finalists chosen by Billboard.com voters -- especially California's sweet-voiced AJ Rafael and his vocal supporters. But the Boston rockers eked out the win on the force of a charismatic double-vocalist assault that swayed the evening's MC, Sugar Ray's Mark McGrath and the panel of Billboard and music industry judges.
"I don't know what just happened! It doesn't seem real," Gentlemen Hall's Seth Hachen said in pleased disbelief moments after winning the contest, which awards the band a coveted appearance at May 22's Billboard Music Awards.
They're looking forward to being onstage in a huge arena and sharing the same space as the major stars appearing at the Billboard Music Awards, which include Rihanna, the Black Eyed Peas, Cee Lo Green and Keith Urban. "We're little fishes getting to swim with the big fishes," he said excitedly backstage.
See our newly crowned Battle of the Bands winner Gentlemen Hall on the Billboard Music Awards, broadcast live from Las Vegas on ABC on May 22 at 8pm ET/PT. And be sure to check out our full coverage of the Billboard Music Awards at Billboard.com/BBMA. -
