For: Fairweather

We bring a lot of musical acts on Park City Television - everything from national touring acts to local bands, and it's pretty rare when we hear one of the latter sound like the former. For: Fairweather did just that with their recent appearance on the show. Playing in an stripped-down setup that showcased lead singer Jessica Bassett's soulful singing and plaintive lyrics, the trio (there's a full band setup also that does other gigs) zipped through songs that you could totally expect to hear in an episode of "Gossip Girl."

The family dynamic is clearly visible in how the three work together (Jessica and rhythm guitarist Kaycee look like sisters, but are related through Kaycee's marriage to Jessica's brother, lead guitarist Tim Bassett), and while it may be weird singing about past boyfriends to your brother, the group performs as comfortably as if they're just jamming in the living room after dinner.
