Factor 11 is a Northern California rock band known for blending guitar-driven harmony rock with thoughtful, often topical lyrics. Their music ranges from social commentary to lighter themes (for example: “Good Looking People Drink Wine. Bad Looking People Drink Beer”). The band doesn’t shy away from addressing cultural issues like political correctness, workplace oppression, and societal norms, while still putting on lively, fun performances that get people dancing and singing along.
Band members draw on varied musical influences — classic rock, harmony-focused vocals, and contemporary rock styles — and their live shows mix original songs with eclectic covers. They’re active on the festival and local club circuit and pride themselves on both their musical diversity and their camaraderie.
