Event Profile

With a unique fusion of funk, groove, electronica and rock (dubbed "SpacePornFunk" by fans), Particle has quickly climbed the ranks in today's jam scene. Fueled by the high-octane keyboard work by Steve Molitz, shredding guitar riffs of Charlie Hitchcock, thick bass grooves of Eric Gould and tight beats of drummer Darren Pujalet, this quartet pushes the boundaries of musical energy to the cosmic limit and doesn't look back.

Just a few years old, Los Angeles-based Particle draws crowds from both coasts and is known for its epic, marathon shows that jam 'til dawn. Many well-known guests have shared the stage with Particle for improvisational jams, including Page McConnell of Phish, John Medeski, Robbie Krieger of The Doors, Stanton Moore, Jeff Raines of Galactic and countless others.
