FERMENTED BEATS

Fermented Beats is a genre-bending collective that creates bass-driven instrumental music with engaging horns, unique effects, and driving drums. Embracing a diverse breadth of genres, from psych rock and jazz to experimental prog and neo-classical, the band utilizes the sounds of clarinet, saxophone and effects to leave listeners scratching their head in awe and curiosity. Rooted in Pittsburgh, the group also explores the abstract, gritty, and experimental nature of their personalities. Inspired by nature and fermentation, and motivated by society’s inequities, they strive to push themselves through odd time signatures and adventurous compositions. Glance around the stage and you might find vegetables (likely beets) or a jar of fermented vegetables (also likely beets) floating about.
