POLYRHYTHMICS
Seattle-based Polyrhythmics are celebrating 15 years of sonic exploration with the release of their highly anticipated new album, Life from Below (2025). Since forming in 2010, this seven-piece powerhouse has redefined instrumental music with a sound that blends funk, soul, psychedelic rock, R&B, and Afrobeat into a kaleidoscope of rhythm and groove. Known for their dynamic live performances and innovative compositions, the band has earned a reputation as one of the most captivating acts on the contemporary music scene.
Polyrhythmics emerged from the rich creative soil of Seattle’s eclectic music community, releasing their self-titled debut album in 2011. Since then, their discography has grown to include fan-favorite albums such as Octagon (2015), Caldera (2017), and Man from the Future (2020). Each release showcases their fearless exploration of genre boundaries and their commitment to crafting vibrant, deeply textured soundscapes.
This year’s Life from Below marks an exciting new chapter for Polyrhythmics, delivering a fresh collection of grooves infused with the bold creativity and signature tight-knit musicianship that fans have come to expect. As they celebrate their 15th anniversary, the band reflects on a decade and a half of musical evolution, countless miles on the road, and a loyal community of listeners that continues to grow.
Over the years, Polyrhythmics have graced stages at major festivals and renowned venues across the United States and internationally, sharing bills with legendary artists while carving out a distinct space in the global funk and soul scene. Their music—equal parts danceable, thoughtful, and immersive—offers a rich listening experience that draws from the roots of American funk and soul while incorporating global influences.
With Life from Below, Polyrhythmics look forward to the next chapter of their journey—pushing boundaries, creating new grooves, and bringing their celebrated live energy to audiences around the world.

Bundle that with the diverse backgrounds of Wack’s members: Nepal, Brazil, Mexico, Indigenous Canada, Ukraine, and Canada, and you get a unique perspective on dance music. With songs that ensure the audience is moving - Wack's live shows are an infectious, high-energy experience that will leave you sweaty and fulfilled :)
