Priestess is a Canadian rock band formed in Montreal, Quebec in 2003.

Their first album, called Hello Master was released in 2005. It was first only released in Canada, but RCA Records bought the rights and made an international release.
“Lay Down” was one of the biggest hits of the year, especially after being included in the very popular game, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

Their second album, Prior To The Fire was completed at the end of 2008, although, not without some hiccups. RCA Records didn’t like any of the songs that the band wrote, and asked the to write new material continuously through the recording process. When the band finished the album, RCA still wasn’t happy with how the songs sounded and decided to drop the band. They did allow the band to release their second album through another label though.

Priestess tried to write a third album, and there was even a talk about a tour. But in 2012 it was announced that all work on the album has been halted, and that the band was on a hiatus, due to internal problems in the band.
Since then no effort has been made by the former band members to put the gang back together. Each of them has been engaged in their own separate projects.
