Inoculate (stylized inoculate) is a 5 piece Alternative Metal band from Denver, Colorado. The bands heritage is rooted in 1998, when at 13 years old, Guitarist Michael DiazSantiago and Percussionist Patrik Vormittag began playing together. The nucleus formed would strengthen over a decade later when Guitarist Nikko Gallardo joined an unnamed musical project in the fall of 2009. Obscure intervention would bring Bassist Paul Gerhardstein into the fold and by spring of 2010, the nameless group would become known as inoculate. The nucleus was strong, but incomplete. The final piece came in the winter of 2013 when Vocalist Scott Beckman joined the group. The sedation period was over and a new awakening had begun. We are a nucleus of humbled musicians, stronger together than apart and dedicated to our craft. Our name is a suggestion to our beliefs; Music is an infectious medium and contains the power to persuade and elevate your being.
