Polyrhythmics at Rosebud Ranch

Hey people with excellent taste in music! We’re closing out this season with a show unlike any Rosebud Ranch has seen before. It’s time for Polyrhythmics to rekindle their Nevada City connection which dates back to several performances at the Crazy Horse Saloon many years ago. Since then, this six-piece, psychedelic afro-funk unit from Seattle has completely blown up from coast to coast. They are groove sorcerers possessing the ability to manipulate energy and bend the fabric of time. This just so happens to align perfectly with the otherworldly Rosebud mojo.

Located just five miles from downtown Nevada City, this natural amphitheater is a stone’s throw from the Old 49 Bridge on the South Yuba River. It’s one of those special places on earth where your mood feels instantly elevated once setting foot on the land. For those looking to fully tune out from the craziness of the world, this is the answer for you. An evening at Rosebud is like a full reboot for the soul!

Over the last six years, it has become a coveted destination for music lovers seeking a space that seems to exist in a realm parallel to reality where imagination takes flight into blissful frontiers. It’s a very relaxed setting where many people set up chairs and blankets on the hillside, bring their own food and beverages, meet new friends and soak up the vibes. Dancers love the spongey astro turf dancefloor which invites freedom of movement unlike any other. Rosebud is an all-ages venue where the music starts early around 7:30 and ends by 11. The bonfire will be roaring and magic will be afoot.

Since forming in 2010, Polyrhythmics have 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 wickedly funky band has earned a reputation as one of the most captivating acts on the contemporary music scene. Over the years, this ensemble has graced stages at major festivals and renowned venues across the United States and internationally.

Their all-instrumental sound has a cerebral and transportive quality to it which goes far beyond the seductive dance candy it doles out on a surface level. Thoughtful and immersive, their music draws from the roots of American funk and soul while incorporating global influences that have only deepened with time. We can already foresee their songs blossoming into forests and jungles and underwater caverns of tantalizing seduction as the Rosebud magic takes full effect in the cool, early autumn air.

“Like the methods the band gleaned from Fela Kuti, hypnosis and surprise make up the sonic foundation for Polyrhythmics’ songs.” – American Songwriter
