About Pendulum Hearts

The Pendulum Hearts conjure up a hip-shaking, two-stepping cocktail of Western Swing, Honky Tonk, and Jazz Manouche.
Country band
Austin

The Pendulum Hearts formed in Austin, Texas in 2018. Their sound is a unique blend of Western Swing, Jazz Manouche and Honky Tonk. The band members consist of Chase Risinger, Tony Perez and a rotating cast of rhythm section and soloists including Aaron Parks, Josh Flowers, Greg Forrest Nelson, Vance Hazen, Zack Sapunor, Conner Strickland, Roberto Fabre and Mark Slap. Chase Risinger has been playing guitar and writing songs since he was 13 (a catalogue that includes 98.9 KUTX’s Song of the Day, “Red Turtle”). In 2013, Risinger packed up his truck and tried his luck in Austin, Texas, with the desire to be among his own kind. Once there, he quickly fell in with the local musicians, playing in a number of bands, eventually founding the Pendulum Hearts in 2018. Tony Perez is a furiously talented violinist, he consistently works the crowd up into a hysterical frenzy with his lively and exhilarating solos. His expert playing seamlessly navigates from western swing to classical motifs, from red hot club jazz to cool ethereal bebop. Tony moved to Austin in 2021 after graduating from Northern Arizona University with a degree in musical performance. Whether they're at a swanky night club, a sweaty honky-tonk or a rowdy backyard barn dance, the band pour their souls into every single performance each and every night.

If I could give 10 stars, I would! We had a Trio from Pendulum Hearts for our company holiday party and it was ah-mazing! Chase & his crew are.such.talented.musicians! We had them play for a few hours, so Chase also provided artistic direction and suggestions: like instrumentals for the first set while we were eating dinner, then add in vocals later in the evening. And their customer service was just incredible as the music -- well communicated, clear about expectations, easy to work with, timely with everything. I would book again and again and again without hesitation!

Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

We have our preferred setup which is guitar fiddle and upright bass, but we have a plethora of players that are available and we can do most combinations between 2 and 6 players that can include guitar, fiddle, bass, drums, sax and steel guitar.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

If you have a schedule change just let us know as soon as you can, and we will do everything we can to accommodate!

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Certainly, we are happy to provide house music in between sets at no extra charge.

How much time do you need to set up?

We can set up in 1 hour, but I usually try to get there with a little more time than that to be comfortable.

Can you roam around while you perform?

We're happy to roam around and play acoustically, however in doing so we would not be amplified so only the immediate surrounding people would hear us clearly.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

The quote includes the PA system but not the lighting.
