Carrying the forward momentum of hybridized studio productions and live acts, the multi-instrumentalist trio 3420 has proven to be a powerhouse both on and off the stage. Hailing from Denver, Colorado, they're already right at home in a city and a potential fan base that's served as ground zero for live producer-driven acts across the last decade. Stirring numerous musical disciplines into one super-charged package, there's little territory they won't cover with their signature flare. With a clear dedication to pushing their formula and style wherever and whenever possible, The Rust is proud to host the release of their latest EP; Tenacious.
Spanning five distinct flavors across five unique compositions, Tenacious puts the triple brain-trust of 3420 on direct display. Ranging from hip-hop and DnB rhythms to brolic bass music motifs, the band manages to find the instrumental pocket of even their most digitally-driven productions. With organic drum timbres, six-string guitar, contemporary sound design, and the know-how to mingle it all without oversaturating any individual element, the progression of each composition slides almost effortlessly into the next. If tenacity is the goal, then Tenacious is the dialed-in journey that gets 3420 over that line, and if you've got the same appetite for novel blends and pocketed jams that we do, then you're in for a serious treat.
