Long ago, atop a Rock in the woods, sat a community of friends and fools. As the community molded and grew, the form it took began to expand—from garages to basements to stages to headphones. The sounds it made shook the land, knocking laces from shoes and fear from minds. Soon the sounds left the outskirts, venturing far off into the world; toppling trees, rippling waters, and melting bullets into flowers. That community of which all was borne, was The Rock Dwellers! A four-piece rock group playing original jams, moshable tones, and some covers you can sing your heart out to. Our motto is our livelihood– “We have fun.”

Making some serious noise in the Northeast music scene, Rigometrics provides an original, raw high-energy rock n’ roll sound that’s transformative and undeniably unique. Their signature blend of multiple genres seamlessly unites classic rock with a contemporary edge, comprised of explosive guitar solos by Josef Berger effortlessly shredding through intricate melodies; Derek Haney providing a foundation through pulsating beats on the drums, and Keenan Hendricks hitting an extraordinary vocal range with hammering piano skills. Together, the three-piece band delivers performances that leave diverse audiences in awe and garner a dedicated fan base.

Having only formed in 2021, the three-piece band has already embarked on seven tours down the East Coast/South, sold out 300-capacity venues, headlined seventeen major shows in Maine, and performed 250-plus gigs, all while working independently to gain traction and showcase their unique sound across the Northeast. They released three new singles in 2024 thus far “Endless Road”, “All My Friends (Live for The Weekend)”, & “No Smoke” in preparation for their next small body of work coming later this year. Their Debut album “Rig N’ Roll” was released in September 2022 followed by single, “Share The Fortune”. Those early releases created a buzz for their latest EP, “No Time to Waste”, released in July 2023, and their live album “Live in Maine” released in 2024. These projects are being shared through constant energetic live performances and an undeniable stage presence throughout the Northeast via a renovated school bus that the Rigometrics calls home when on the road.
