“We're kind of an Animal House frat rock band,” Pietasters bassist Jorge Pezzimenti says. “When you see one of our shows, you can expect to have a good time.”
Pezzimenti's statement is one that has held true ever since the D.C., punk/ska/soul/reggae/kitchen sink collective emerged in the early 90s. Blending genres like some kind of musical martini, the tunes of the 'Tasters have always gone down smooth. Of course, the concert experience can sometimes get a little rough. The band's unofficial motto: “It's not a good show unless somebody bleeds.”
