Unextraordinary Gentlemen (UXG) is a musical project formed in Los Angeles in 2005 by bassist/keyboardist Richard Pilawski & vocalist/lyricist Eric Schreeck to "... explore our love for post-punk, synth-pop, industrial & experimental music combined with the literary genre of Victorian fantasy. " The project went public in early 2007, joined by Jennifer Pomerantz on violin. The band's name is a tongue-in-cheek nod to Alan Moore's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

" They have performed in notable venues such as the CIA, the Knitting Factory and the Derby, and have performed at major goth and steampunk events including Eccentrik Festival, Bats Day and The Edwardian Ball. Their first CD, 5 Tales from God-Only-Knows received positive reviews from several sources including ReGen Magazine and Midnight Calling EZine. Their music is frequently featured on a number of steampunk radio broadcasts that stream worldwide, such as The Clockwork Cabaret.
