Verses The Inevitable is Looking to Push Genre Limits
Verses The Inevitable is a rock band out of Denver, Colorado originally formed in June of 2015 by Daniel Hertel. Verses The Inevitable features a blending of musical genres including rock, blues, soul, americana, jazz, and folk. The band just released the first single called Dark Matter off of their 3rd record which is slated to be released in August of 2021. The band’s sophomore album Grit & Grace Grit & Grace truly captured the evolution of the bands sound by pairing a deep dynamic musical range with touching lyrical stylings. Ben Weise from the Denver Westword states, “Grit & Grace is a nine-track record comprising jazzy Americana soul that occasionally evokes the dogged feel of a speakeasy one minute and a blend of familiar folk-country harmonies the next. Highlights such as “Hard Times” and “Morgan County Blues” demonstrate both the band’s artistic range and Hertel’s knack for gritty storytelling… the band has grown into something bigger than just a single artistic vision; the results are a layered, full, diverse and dynamic sound.” The band members include Daniel Hertel (Vocals/Guitar), Mad Dog Friedman (Harmonica), Taylor Biskup (Lead Guitar), Matt Certosimo (Bass), Michael McKee(Drums), Will Snyder (Keys), and Madalynn Rose (Vocals). The band’s first studio album All Debts Paid was the Mile High Blues Society Nominee for Best Self Produced Album of The Year in 2016 and was sent to Memphis, Tennessee to compete in the category against albums from around the world. Verses The Inevitable is truly carving out its own genre, and is becoming a significant force in the Denver music scene. Grit & Grace is a step above their first record and was among the top reviewed albums in Colorado in 2018. The 3rd album is scheduled for release in August/September of 2021.
