Bio.

Pink Beds sits at the intersection of spacious grooves and lush song-crafting. If All I Have, the band's debut 2020 LP, was a love letter to the sounds that surrounded them in Appalachia, the March 2024 follow-up, Spare Key To A Memory, is a nuanced and evolved form, showcasing their love of lush, angular, and ethereal sounds designed to resonate with our deepest emotional experiences.

Shifting from a lockdown songwriting project to an electrifying live act, the band has taken on a vibrant and captivating quality all to their own. Playing off of the spark of a live environment, the band evolves and expands upon their familiar compositions, taking them to new and exciting places. After securing a foothold in southeast markets, becoming a FloydFest On-the-Rise artist, a Relix Magazine Sonic Showdown Finalist, and making prominent regional festival appearances, the band is eager to bring these new songs and experiences to audiences throughout 2024.

Pink Beds from Asheville, NC comprises Aaron Aiken (Vocals, Guitar, Keys, Synths), Jackson Van Horn (Guitar, Keys, Synths), Logan Hall (Bass, Synths), and Ryan Sargent (Drums, Percussion). The group explores their shared influences nurtured by a deep bond with one another.

“Album standout “The Word (DANCE)” is where it all comes together. The influences from ’00s New York indie rock find their way to the dance floor as trippy synthesizers dart between eardrums and speakers. All of the rooms are connected here, as Pink Beds blend all of their influences into something new that rises above the nameless, faceless blur of generic indie rock emanating from NYC to L.A. and not enough places in between. If they had a big label behind them—rather than seizing the means of production and self-releasing in true DIY fashion—”The Word” would be all over Sirius Radio to the point we’d all be disgusted by it.” — Live For Live Music

“What started as a casual jam to entertain a keg party has morphed itself into one of the most intriguing new musical acts in Western North Carolina. Aiken, a Brevard native, now fronts an Asheville group that stands at the intersection of indie rock, psychedelic folk, and cerebral pop. It’s a seamless blend, more so a vibrant flow, that harkens back to the sounds of early 2000s indie icons The Strokes and Keane, with a thick thread leading to the melodic camps of Tame Impala and Snow Patrol.”

“With electronic-infused improvisations interspersed through the band’s shimmering song structures, Pink Beds sounded like if Dawes was more into psychedelic mushrooms.”
