At a packed Cameo Gallery, Beast Patrol headlined on Saturday the Alt Rock stage of our Best of NYC Emerging Artists Fest 2013 (also known as The NYC B.E.A.F.), sharing the stage with Apollo Run, Seasick Mama, Teen Girl Scientist Monthly and Vuvuzela). Fronted by Vanessa Bley on vocals and guitar, the trio performs with confidence and precision songs that marry open melodies, rock’n’roll punch, and a dark and tense undercurrent. The band’s video for Disbeliever created a remarkable buzz last year, while the one for "Plaster" (streaming below) confirmed this band’s potential. With an appeal reminiscent of bands like The Pretenders and late Eurythmics, this is a group that has the potential to be enjoyed by many.
Beast Patrol will perform at Northside on Thursday 06.13 at 2 pm during BMI’s Creators Kickoff luncheon at Mable’s Smokehouse.
