Slim
Glasses
“Four voices, four songwriters, one band built on harmony. We are best friends making music together, inviting everyone in the room to be part of it.”
Four voices,
one sound.
Slim Glasses formed in 2015 at Miami Dade College, where Patricio Acevedo, Erik Anderson, José Ballón, and Christopher Myers came together for a campus performance that quietly became the start of the band. What was meant to be a one-off showcase clicked so naturally that the four-piece kept playing, and on September 16, 2015, they officially became a band.
Every member leads.
Their sound lives in the wide territory between the 1960s and the early 2000s, pulling from classic rock, folk, jazz, doo-wop, blues, and beyond. The throughline is always the same: layered vocal harmonies, lyric-forward songwriting, and arrangements built collaboratively. The result is a catalog that feels both classic and current.
Live, Slim Glasses leans into intimacy and connection over spectacle. Their shows are built for listening, for laughing between songs, for the moment a harmony lands and the room goes quiet. They are not chasing trends or making a statement. They are best friends making music together, inviting everyone in the room to be part of it.
Meet the four.
Patricio Acevedo
Patricio has built a career blending classical precision with modern energy, anchoring the low end of the band’s sound with cello and bass. He brings a calmer, more grounded energy to the band’s chemistry, the steady current under the rest of the sound.
Erik Anderson
Erik is the band’s lead guitarist and an avid songwriter, drawn to lyrical storytelling and an eclectic mix of rock, jazz, folk, rap, bossa nova, and reggae that’s familiar yet fresh. He writes with one foot in the 60s, one in the 90s, and his eyes pointed forward.
José Ballón
José holds down the drums and has a passion for arranging, drawing on his tastes in rock, classical, jazz, folk, and world music. On stage, he’s known for cracking jokes between songs; off stage, he is driven by his work as a church choral director.
Christopher Myers
Christopher is the band’s pianist and rhythm guitarist. With a voice that adapts effortlessly across genres, he can switch from crooning romantic ballads to theatrically belting powerhouse rock vocals.
