A Hundred Drums with Brain Spiders & Beatra
Animas City Theatre Presents A Hundred Drums with Brain Spiders & Beatra Saturday November 29th 2025 Unify Mountain Soundz providing HSD Sound System Subs Tickets $32 / $35 / 21+ No Exceptions Including Minors with legal Gaurdians Tickets on Sale now online Doors 7:00pm – Beatra 8:00pm-9;00pm – Brain Spiders 9:00pm-10:00pm – A Hundred Drums 10:00pm-11:15pm – 11:45 Curfew Thunderous low end and pulsating rhythm embody the powerful music of A Hundred Drums. Stomping the stage in a tangle of hair and a blur of motion, her high-octane live show is the result of years of searching for that perfect primal pulse that connects humans on the dance floor. Since she was a teenager, Gabrielle Watson has been cultivating a sound that encapsulates experimental hip-hop, psychedelic bass, and indigenous hand drums. After a decade of crafting her sonic signature in cutting-edge spaces, A Hundred Drums has emerged onto the main stage to bring the sounds of the underground to the masses. In early Summer 2021, A Hundred Drums released a politically potent EP on ZEDS DEAD’s Deadbeats label. Enough Is Enough outlines the struggles of being Black in America, set against the backdrop of police violence, systemic racism, and the protest movement still pervasive in a world one year removed from the death of George Floyd. Unlike anything the powerhouse bass label has ever released, a mini-documentary companion piece gave fans an inside look at the making of the record. Through it, Watson tells the story of her own mistreatment at the hands of the police and the genesis of the music and message she so desperately needed to convey. In an industry saturated with vapid party anthems, A Hundred Drums chose to use her platform to deliver substance alongside sound. Watson cut her teeth in dark and sweaty basements showcasing icons of the UK dubstep and drum & bass scenes, and has traveled to far flung psytrance festivals to hone her mixing skills. ‘AHD’ now gets to share lineups with some of the biggest acts in all of electronic music and collaborate with some of the most sought after producers and vocalists across a multitude of genres. She kicks off 2022 as a handpicked support act for REZZ’s blockbuster North American tour. Major festival dates loom large on the calendar. A series of singles, collaborations, and mixes stack up in the pipeline. A Hundred Drums has arrived and with her comes the promise of a new generation of bass producers in ascendance. https://www.ahundreddrums.com https://soundcloud.com/ahundreddrums https://open.spotify.com/artist/1dUCaUhp2RZRXrwOyUnHxQ https://www.facebook.com/ahundreddrums https://www.instagram.com/ahundreddrums Brain Spiders (brain spi-ders) is an air born parasitic infection. The spiders travel through sonic pulsations in the air and are transmitted by low frequencies. Infection first occurs by stimulation of the auditory nerves and auditory centers of the brain.The infection localizes to the temporal lobe and cause the infected to become mesmerized by deep frequency vibrations. Other symptoms include euphoria, the rush of adrenaline, and the need to dance.

He’s a band-fronting, songwriting party animal who turns into a swirling rock ‘n’ roll Tasmanian Devil onstage leading his U.N., not unlike Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band.“We’ve dedicated our lives to doing this, so we want to give it 130% of our energy,” says the unapologetic leader of Andy Frasco & The U.N., which has grown from playing bars to touring more than 250 days a year all over the country. “We don’t chase the latest trend down the rabbit hole. This is who we are. You don’t have to be in the cool club to enjoy our music. We’re all in this together.”
Elder Grown with Float Like A Buffalo
Animas City Theatre Presents Elder Grown with Float Like A Buffalo Friday November 14th 2025 $25 / $30 at the Door / 21+ No Exceptions Including Minors with legal Gaurdians STANDING ROOM ONLY – LIMITED SEATING IN BALCONY https://www.eldergrownmusic.com https://open.spotify.com/artist/2goH9cMI15q2lSTHCkrZCO?si=rP_BO-uFRlSyYj6L3_GTlg Family and community are the roots of Elder Grown, a band of brothers from Durango, Colorado. Every audience member becomes their 6th collective member—the heartbeat that fuels their music. Known for their energetic live performances, Elder Grown creates a captivating, genre-bending sound, blending hip-hop-forward funk, soul-inspired rock, jazz, and reggae, with improvisation at the core of their musical journey. The release of Parachutes on New Year’s Eve 2024 marks a milestone in their evolution. Entirely self-produced and recorded, the album highlights Elder Grown’s signature style—groovy bass lines, bold saxophone, screaming guitar, and fearless instrument-swapping mid-song. With Parachutes, they invite listeners on an exhilarating musical rollercoaster, pushing boundaries while staying rooted in their soulful essence. Elder Grown’s story began in the 1990s when the Hoffman brothers—Joshua, John, and Paul—grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico, surrounded by their father’s singer-songwriter performances. Their passion for music blossomed, and after moving to Southwest Colorado, the brothers formed Elder Grown, bringing their multifaceted talents to life. Float Like a Buffalo delivers high-energy rock n’ roll, layered with funk, jam, and a bold brass section – a genre-bending live experience that gets the whole room moving. https://www.floatlikeabuffalomusic.com/#home-section https://open.spotify.com/artist/4wOJnYk1HAGnMqljn79qq3?si=p92xDLKiQVqrYk48LId9QQ&nd=1&dlsi=6992d1e20efe438d
