Performing music ranging from Usher to Herbie Hancock to Kendrick Lamar, STEM Beats takes pride in delivering only the highest quality. Hailing from Holyoke, MA, we are the music program at Holyoke STEM Academy, a public middle school with approximately 300 students. Every student at STEM Academy is part of STEM Beats for the entire year.
STEM Beats has performed at various local schools, Boston University, hosted music education classes, and much more. We perform music chosen and arranged by our students. Our group features keyboards, drum sets, singers, rappers, mallet percussion, bass, and guitar. We are not a band, we are not a choir—WE ARE STEM BEATS!
Soulsville Strings Electric is a quintet comprised of some of our best string players. They perform various genres of music on an electric string quartet along with electric bass guitar.
