   About Rigveda
Before I say anything, do us all a favor ok...if you are going to add us, can you please send us a friggin message with that add? Tell us who you are, tell us what you think of us, or how you know us, or that your just trying to build a huge list for yourself....I don't care what you say, say anything.

Who knows where the conversation could lead. Alright thanks...no go listen to our shit!



Everything we know is based on events in time that are real beyond all the subtle changes each immeasurable piece of information and time adds to the enigma.

Therefore an indisputable truth does in fact exist. This truth has an original beginning and an absolute honesty that once prevailed but is now lost in a huge web of history, languages, misrepresentations and exaggerations.

The Rigveda is the original truth. Its the first, the only, and the always of knowledge, information and honesty.


Some bands attempt to imitate a sound or seek to capture a style, but Rigveda is different. These boys have something special. Some find it hard to put a name to what encapsulates their unique blend of sounds while others simply say they have raw unpolished talent. But barley anyone who has seen one of their few live shows in Edmonton and area will disagree that Rigveda is poised to take that next step.

Fronting Rigveda, two impassioned singers and guitarists each bring a different specialty to their music. Jose's tightly played wailing guitar melodies, perfectly-pitched vocal harmonies and freakishly dark screams certainly compliment Capitan Herc's always-recognizable unique voice and thick guitar sounds. These two front men produce a mixture of highs and lows amid their extremes, all while the two performers switch up lead vocals, solos and everything in between.

As songwriters, Herc and Jose each bring their own personal style which when blended produces something unlike anything else you’ve heard. When either of them come to the table with a new riff, their mutual admiration for the other’s craft facilitates the next level of song writing so that each new song becomes their best. Add in the loyalty of bass player Jake, and schooled on-point drummer Ben and the creative energy by the two front men is exponentiated. They are a perfect blend of difference.

The boys are both impassioned and surprised by the following Rigveda has birthed. This unification gives their live shows countless spontaneous combinations. From Jose’s Mariachi roots to Ian’s unplugged showcase of vocal talent, they continually give their audiences a real treat.

With their minds set on improving their melodic hard edged rock and bringing their stage show to higher extremes, you too will feel a part of something great still unfolding each time you watch them play their hymns to something greater then all of this.
