Subconscious Culture

Subconscious Culture, the dynamically eclectic six-piece hip-hop band, home-grown in Portland, is certainly on the up and up and bringing no shortage of energy with them. Leading the charge with engagingly expressive vocals and practical orchestration is Erin Miller aka Seth (as known from his solo project), formally of Hypfonic in the UK. You’ll find Matt "Phunky" Brewster on the bass who holds down deep-pocket grooves with slick slaps and pops, which may be locally familiar to fans of his previous band Ancient Sol. He currently also plays with Laryssa Birdseye Music, Lance Kinnaird, and more. Jonathan Moore is a locally sought after, multi-faceted musician who provides the keys with smart and jazzy chops. He’s currently also playing in King Black Acid and Streetcar Conductor. The guitar player, Nate Ashbaugh, has a foundationally intuitive style and sense of placement for his methodical melodies and chords. Last but not least, Sean Kenny brings his focused rhythms and stylings as organic as a heartbeat, tying together the body that makes Subconscious Culture. He currently also plays with Laryssa Birdseye Music and Lance Kinnaird Special guests include Emily Etherington aka Eminent of Kinetic Emcees and Laryssa Birdseye. We are a band with a blend of Hip-Hop, Ska, and Soul that is energetic, poetic, and danceable.
