The combination of two former members of King Crimson, a guitar virtuoso, and the drummer from Tool, is set to create an unforgettable musical experience. This supergroup, known as Beat, has been making waves since their tour began in September 2024, with spectators describing their performances as spectacular. Despite being a smaller ensemble compared to the eight-member King Crimson, Beat has proven that they can deliver the iconic band’s music with just four members.
Who forms the Super Cuarteto Beat?
Beat consists of Adrian Belew, the vocalist and guitarist of King Crimson, Toni Levin on bass, also a key member of King Crimson, Steve Vai on guitar, and Danny Carey of Tool on drums. This lineup brings together a wealth of musical talent and experience, with each member having made significant contributions to the world of progressive rock.
The tour has been met with enthusiasm from fans and critics alike, with many praising the group’s ability to recreate King Crimson’s complex music with a smaller lineup. Robert Fripp, the founder and guitarist of King Crimson, has even given his support to Beat, suggesting the name and endorsing their efforts to bring King Crimson’s music to a new audience.

Beat is set to perform in Mexico City at the Olympic Velodrome on April 27, and in Monterrey at the Showcenter on April 24.
