Pat Frederick joins MN music luminaries Dr. Sarah Schmalenberger, Donnie La Marca, Nick Salisbury and Dr. Dave Schmalenberger for the highly anticipated 2025 debut of The New Entangled Particles.

The New Entangled Particles brings an experimental jazz indie ear to a sharply curated bag of musical tricks… hand picked for beauty, brains & wit… think Thomas Dolby’s “She Blinded Me With Science” as Cuban montuno… or Broadway’s, “On The Street Where You Live,” with a Danny Elfman Beetlejuice lilt. It’s a decidedly joyful outré musical romp through the back alleys of world-beat, post-pop, jazz, exotica, Broadway, funk and it’s all fair game. Pat Frederick’s electric violin rides a muscular ensemble consisting of some of MN’s finest musicians.
