Polyrhythmics at The Ruins

Thursday, July 9, 2026

6:00 pm - 9:00 pm 

Polyrhythmics sound originated in Seattle’s underground deep funk scene, combining impossibly tight grooves with bold brass and hypnotic percussion that showcased elements of R&B, progressive jazz, and Afrobeat, which defined the instrumental group’s early era sound.  

Now in their thirteenth year as a recording project and touring ensemble, the band’s sound continues to evolve following six full-length albums, several EPs, and live releases. The virtuosic musicianship and musical conversation built on a relentless touring schedule of the previous decade has led them to a brand of psych-funk that fills a room with an impending mood where anything could happen - sometimes evoking their brighter and cinematic Fela-influences, but also a more sinister and darker turn toward a more progressive sonic palette.
