The Pyrx Band

HIGH TIMES MAGAZINE UNDERGROUND ARTIST OF THE YEAR

About Me

PYRX - “A smooth blend of funk, hip-hop, jam, reggae, rock and groove. Their live shows are high energy, offering fans Heady vocals, Chronically ill-matic guitar, sticky icky bass, hashed out bubble sax, smokin' drums, and mind-blowing improvisation. PYRX melds together an irie sound all their own for the masses to groove on. A welcome addition to the new age of music.”
PYRX continues rockin' cities and towns worldwide. Bringing conscious lyrics and positive vibrations to the music scene. With the help of an $80,000 custom 38 ft. tour bus, a NYC entertainment lawyer, promoters, booking agents, management, and a tour manager, they are smashing their way into the mainstream.

•"We had a lot of great performances at the cup this year, including performances by moe, Honky Tonk Homeslice, Los Marijuanos, the homegrown band, Redman, and Mucksticky, but the unexpected musical sensation of the event turned out to be an unknown band from Northern California called Pyrx" - Steve Hager of High Times Magazine.
