Tetrarch is an American heavy metal band originally from Atlanta, Georgia (pronounced tetch - raw - k) ,now based in Los Angeles.
They spent the rest of 2007 perfecting their live performance by playing close to 100 shows, which started a buzz in the Atlanta area.
To support their first release, Tetrarch continued to play in Atlanta while expanding their reach regionally with mini tours in the south east.
The single caught the attention of Atlanta's biggest Rock Station, "Project 9-6-1" (96.1FM), where the band was featured for multiple weeks on the air.
[4] On May 5, 2011, while the EP was being finished, they were asked to play the main stage, supporting Avenged Sevenfold, Seether, and Alter Bridge at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Atlanta.
[7] In the summer of 2012, Tetrarch was in Audiohammer Studios in Sanford, FL with Jason Suecof and Eyal Levi[8] working on a their Relentless EP, a follow-up to 2011's The Will to Fight.
The book "investigates how black women musicians and fans navigate the metal, hardcore, and punk music genres that are regularly thought of as inclusive spaces and centered on a community spirit, but fail to block out the race and gender issues that exist in the outside world.
The band closed the year out with 3 shows from December 13–15, 2013 spanning from Albany, Georgia at The Oglethorpe Lounge to Port Charlotte, Florida at Voodoo.
To open 2014, Tetrarch are scheduled to provide support to Straight Line Stitch, Goodbye October, and Viscera on January 17, 2014, at The Lantern (relocated from DJ's Tavern) in Rome, Georgia; and are also scheduled to headline the "Hometown Throwdown" on January 18, 2014, at The Masquerade in Atlanta with support from Prime Mover, As Animals Eat My Insides, and Living With Strangers.
