Rigometrics

Bio

Rigometrics is a Portland, Maine trio formed in late 2021 that plays Nietzsche’s in Buffalo on its Northeast runs. The band’s site describes a high-energy mix of classic rock, funk, blues, indie hooks, and modern alternative, built around Josef Berger’s guitar, Derek Haney’s drums, and Keenan Hendricks’ vocals and piano, with the piano covering the bass part live. By the band’s own account they have played more than 450 shows, toured the East Coast and South, sold out 300-capacity rooms, and headlined shows in Maine, first traveling in a renovated school bus and later a van.
