Priceless Bodies are self-taught multi-instrumentalists, producers, and video artists Vivian and Bianca Pencz. Twin sisters Vancouver-born but now Manchester-based. Their music embodies their experience as working class women & artists living in a culture & class war. They experiment with no wave vocals, metallic guitars, analogue synths, and eclectic beats. Leftfield acts from the late 70's & early 80's, as well as the band's wry sensibilities, are the main influences for their mesmerising EP on 6a6y 6, Happy Wife Happy Life. Having played all around Manchester/Salford, as well as a show in Germany funded by the Arts Council, they are now planning a small UK tour.
From time to time, they also DJ live and on air for NTS, Reform Radio, etc.
'It's got all of the casio-centric groove and snapping instrumental precision of the original Electroclash but where the industrial punk influences leeched out of Munich in those early iterations, Priceless Bodies' sound is swimming with modern influences. It's a brilliant combination, and one that will be sure to see this talented duo go far.' —Piccadilly Recs, 2024
'[some of] the best of our cities grassroots music scene' —PROFORMA X Begehungen, 2023
'I was blown away with how tight and experimental their [live] approach really was.' -MUKAMCR, 2021 | ![]() |
