beat and path
beat&path offers an eclectic mix of emotional vocals, intricate rhythms, meaningful messages, melodic guitars, and heavy grooves -- creating uniquely beautiful, inspiring, powerful rock music.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
L.A.'s ground-breaking new rock band, Beat & Path, was formed in 2001 by the dynamic songwriting team of Douglas Ladnier (vocals) and Barrett Yeretsian (drums). Now with Clint Feddersen (bass), Sebu Simonian (keyboards), and more than 30 original songs in their catalogue, Beat & Path is self-releasing their third CD in just over one year.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
The Beat & Path live show has been called "a rhythmic and lyrical revelation"; since their Los Angeles club debut last fall in a sold-out show at the Viper Room, they have performed at L.A.'s Roxy, Troubadour, and El Rey; at San Francisco's Tongue & Groove; and in New York, where they played to an enthusiastic sold-out crowd at the Triad.
