As diverse as they are cohesive, the three members of Pance Party began their collaboration upon moving to San Francisco, where they all moved to study music and pursue their dream of rocking out and getting paid to do it. Andy, from Philadelphia, worked for a year and a half as a neuroscientist before pursuing his career in music, and builds his own custom multitouch music controllers. Eric, hailing from the Bay Area and finding his muse in the Berlin electro scene, won the Price is Right and has summited Kilimanjaro. And Ben (more affectionately known as Swardy), a Maine native, once road a bicycle across America, and really, really likes five-dollar footlongs. Together, this dynamic squad produces with one goal in mind – to gather a crowd that puts an emphasis on facial contortion and ridiculous dance moves.
