(11/18) Live Music: Pink Beds (Free Show)

  • The Vanguard Brew Pub & Distillery 504 North King Street Hampton, VA, 23669 United States (map)

Inspired by a mélange of influences, from New Wave and Americana to Jazz and Disco, Pink Beds
comprise Aaron Aiken (Vocals & Guitar), Jackson Van Horn (Keys & Guitar), Ryan Sargent (Drums &
Percussion), and Logan Hall (Bass).
With their December 2020 debut LP, All I Have, Asheville, NC’s Pink Beds combined their
songwriting abilities and production chops to craft a lush, warm and evocative sonic environment.
From tracking and production, to mixing and mastering, each stage of the process was kept entirely
within the group. Specifically within a tiny house nestled at the foothills of the Pisgah National Forest.
With compositions designed to resonate with emotional experiences as well as to invoke distinct moods,
the laser-focus and authentically crafted songs o er a glimpse into what potential avenues are next to
be explored, all while paying homage to the influences that helped shape their musical explorations.
“What started out as a casual jam to entertain a keg party has morphed itself into one of the most
intriguing new musical acts in Western North Carolina.
Aiken, a Brevard native, now fronts an Asheville group that stands at the intersection of indie rock,
psychedelic folk and cerebral pop. It’s a seamless blend, more so a vibrant flow, that harkens back to the
sounds of early 2000s indie icons The Strokes and Keane, with a thick thread leading to the melodic
camps of Tame Impala and Snow Patrol.”
