There are two bands with the name The Gifted Children

1) the gifted children is a collective of musicians from rochester and buffalo, ny.

they’ve released 5 albums and 15 EPs in the past 2 years alone, and have recorded more than 1300 songs in their 15 year career... they specialize in concise, compelling, slightly cryptic and off-kilter pop songs, laced with shoegazer atmospherics and electronic noise. lyrics are literate, vivid and slightly obtuse.

recommended for fans of:
guided by voices, broken social scene, the new pornographers, american music club …


2) The Gifted Children was the new name that Dan Treacy chose when Ed Ball left the Television Personalities, but he used it only on the Painting By Numbers single and on the "All For Art And Art For All" compilation.
The three songs released under this name are My Favourite Films, Painting By Numbers and Lichtenstein Girl. The last two songs were included in TVPs' second album ("Mummy Your Not Watching Me"). In the album "Lichtenstein Girl" was retitled "Lichtenstein Painting".
