Started in the Los Angeles outskirts by Jacob Jimenez in the summer of 2014, Velvateen has infiltrated the Los Angeles and Inland Empire underground music scene by showing their raw, authentic and in your face brand of Hard Rock music.  With influences that span a plethora of genres, Velvateen seeks to destroy all in sight by being as loud and heavy with only two people, the same way that other bands would do with five.

“One of the most exciting duos to be coming out of Los Angeles right now, Velvateen’s new approach of crossing genres all while have one hell of a party and celebrating their roots.” - DSCVRD Magazine

"...the powerful vocal performance that encapsulates the heaviness of more modern rock and metal perfectly." - Alex Dungworth

“Velvateen’s rising popularity is causing a storm” - Rebecca Aguia (Talon News)
