Formed in the Summer of 2020, Hexx Head is the conception of Boston, MA based interdisciplinary artists Allie Coppola and Mike Frazier. The two began collaborating over their shared enthusiasm of abrasive industrial techno beats, hypnotic synthesizer riffs and powerful vocals. Winter of 2021 brought the release of their first EP “Seabeds Cough”. Since then, Hexx Head has toured the West Coast twice and have played numerous shows in the Boston local electronic music circuit.
Hexx Head often finds inspiration in the concept of polarity, delving into the delicate balance between opposites and exploring how these opposing forces can harmoniously coexist and materialize. With their individual backgrounds in visual art, Hexx Head often uses imagery and sound to bring their ideas to life.
