Animus Gem is a Boise rock band primed to take the world by storm.

Since 2021, Max and Jeanie have been playing bars and breweries around Idaho’s Treasure Valley, performing covers and original songs.

In July 2022, the duo found a bass player who could keep up with Max’s guitar wizardry and Jeanie’s vocal pyrotechnics, and they quickly brought Jack into the fold. The three began writing together, all the while searching for *the* drummer who could match their intensity.

When they finally met Casey, the connection was instant. The newly-solidified quartet immediately began playing shows around the Treasure Valley and working on their first singles.

Now, after adding Christian to fill the void at rhythm guitar, they’re carving out space in rock music for their heavy riffs, locked-in grooves, and undeniably catchy hooks in a unique blend of rock, pop-punk, and metal – come to a show to see what they’re about!

THE FEDERALISTS ARE A BOISE, IDAHO BASED ROCK BAND KNOWN FOR HIGH-ENERGY, TIGHTLY EXECUTED LIVE SHOWS BUILT AROUND SEARING ELECTRIC GUITARS, POWERFUL DRUMS, AND RICH KEYBOARD TEXTURES.

THEIR SOUND BLENDS INTENSITY AND MELODY, CREATING A DYNAMIC STYLE THAT IS BOTH DRIVING AND ATMOSPHERIC.
