Wednesday, July 25, 2012
On August 23, Miss Quincy will be bringing her smokin’ hot allgirl trio The Showdown to Nancy O’s in Prince George to celebrate the release of her second full-length album, Like
The Devil Does. The raunchy roots and blues band is originally from northern B.C. but currently they call the road their home. Back in Canada after a seven-week European
tour, the band is now smack dab in the middle of a three-month tour on the summer festival circuit. Featuring electric guitar, upright bass and drums, the band members are armed with

attitude, style and killer musicianship. Miss Quincy doesn’t fit the classic girl singer/songwriter mold and The Showdown isn’t your average allgirl band. You won’t
find them singing pretty pages out of their diaries. Instead you’ll find them getting down and rocking out with raunchy electric roots and blues music. Miss Quincy and The
Showdown play Nancy O’s, 1261 Third Ave. on Thursday, August 23. Show starts at 8:30 p.m. Tickets are $10. For more information about Miss Quincy visit www.missquincy.net.
