Boy Eats Drum Machine

Boy Eats Drum Machine is the musical project of Jon Ragel, a multi-talented artist who's been making waves since 2001. Hailing originally from Portland, Oregon, Ragel later moved to Santa Cruz in 2014. His unique sound blends elements of electronic music, hip-hop, and indie rock, creating a genre-defying mix that's all his own.

As a one-man band, Ragel's live performances are a sight to behold. He juggles singing, DJing, playing saxophone, and live drumming - all while throwing in some killer dance moves. Boy Eats Drum Machine has released several albums over the years, including "Booomboxxx" (2008), "Hoop + Wire" (2010), and "M1" (2014). Ragel's innovative approach to music-making and energetic live shows have earned him a dedicated following and critical acclaim in the indie music scene.
