Harlem Hayfield & Pete Jive at The Roxy

HARLEM HAYFIELD -
For some, finding the roots that truly ground us is a lifelong journey.
For Harlem Hayfield, that journey begins and ends with embracing their true identities: musicians, collaborators, and, perhaps most importantly, friends. Hailing from a sparsely populated factory town filled with more memories than people, the band blends eclectic music influences with personal life lessons, resulting in a groove-centric genre they describe as “rustbelt soul.” Their sound encompasses elements of southern rock, funk-infused abandon reminiscent of the 70s, and harmonies that also evoke a throwback nostalgia while maintaining a modern edge. At all times however, Harlem Hayfield creates music that makes the listener feel something.
PETE JIVE -
When Pete Jive sings, charisma glides out of him and hugs you. Jive's gyrating, crazy legs maneuvers, turn-on-a-dime leaving two nickels syncopated rhythms, and punchy lyrics will heart-imprint you. A Pete Jive performance is an all-in, no one left seated affair, where Jive locks eyes, ears, legs, voice, fingers, and rapt attention around his audience. You don't hear a Pete Jive set; you and Pete live through it, together—that's the attuned intimacy Pete delivers to audiences.
