About

Ever since the release of their 2008 EP Chunk of Change, Passion Pit’s unique brand of indietronica has appealed to fans of both indie rock and electronic dance music, generating heaps of praise from those bastions of hipster cred otherwise known as music blogs. With the release of sophomore album Gossamer in 2012, the band kept crowds moving with a collection of ambitious and impeccably produced gems like “Take a Walk” and “Constant Conversations,” earning the album a No. 4 position on the Billboard 200. Passion Pit originated as the solo project of frontman Michael Angelakos, who penned the project’s first songs for his girlfriend before enlisting some of his classmates from Berklee College of Music to start a group. The band’s debut full-length Manners (2009) received praise from critics and bloggers for its catchy and danceable songs, including breakthrough single “Sleepyhead” and kaleidoscopic electro hit “The Reeling.” On tour in 2013, Passion Pit has been treating fans to high-octane live performances that perfectly capture the spirit of their sparkling pop anthems.

    Great Show

    by emacarla3 on 12/13/09The Fox Theater - Pomona - Pomona

    The show was great! Vocals were a bit hard to hear, but I was afraid they would be out of tune with him trying to reach those high notes, but overall, he did a good job. The enthusiasm of the crowd was great, and the venue was perfect.

    The first two bands weren't that good, Band of skulls and some other band, but when passion pit came on, it was just wonderful, it was my first LEGIT concert EVER and it was just simply amazing. I would do this again ANY TIME!

    PASSION PIT WAS AMAZING

    by coooooooooobieboooobieeee on 12/13/09The Fox Theater - Pomona - Pomona

    The best concert I have ever been to. Band of Skulls and Plague Vendor played also, but only Band of Skulls was good. Then Passion Pit came on. If you were in the pit, you had the best time of your life. Crowd surfs, dancing, jumping, and Michael Angelakos kept the crowd into everything he sang. I will never forget this concert!!!

    Passion Pit was meh

    by monzarottie on 12/9/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    I was really looking forward to this show, but was somewhat disappointed. They relied on too much sequencing which destroyed the groove. Too bad 'cause I lover their music.

    Passion Pit rocked the house!!!

    by Anonymous on 12/9/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    Most bands that use a lot of production have a large drop off when it comes to their live shows. With Passion Pit this was definitely not the case. It was like listening to their album at home, only the music engulfed you and kicked it up a notch.

    Froze my ass of outside, danced my ass off inside.

    by HolyMoli on 12/8/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    What a perfect way to kick off the December to Remember. Hockey was a good local opener, ton of energy. Not so sure about the singer in the middle, Squid kinda cockblocked her by pumping up the crowd for Passion Pit and then introducing her. Passion Pit lived up to the expectations, great show, great encore. I would definitley go and see them again.

    Passion Pit at the crystal ballroom was amazingggg hockey opened for them and is now one of my favorite bands, but passion pit was incredible the only bad thing was everyone was pushing to the front so we were all extremely cramped and i wish the security or something could have told everyone to move back a little but it was an amazing night!

    JumpAround

    by PacificNorthFresh on 12/8/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    Between Montel Jordan being played during the intermission and PP's encore performance that had the the crowd jumping so hard I thought either 1. floor was going to give out or 2. that i was going to be launched into the chandelier. (sidenote: I wasnt jumping at the time) This show could only be described as one word: funtastic.

    Passion Pit Awesome, Sound system setup not great

    by Sherah on 12/8/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    The Passion PIt show was awesome. The crowd was high energy and fun. The only complaint I ever have with the Crystal Ballroom is that the sound system setup is not great. There were times during the show where my ears actually hurt because the sound was not great..

    Hockey's got the Passion!

    by KoiKoi on 12/8/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    I don't have anything against Passion Pit. I guess they just don't strike the same chord with me that they seem to have struck with the rest of the audience at the December 7 event. I hadn't even heard them until I did some googling to find out who Hockey was opening for. I was shocked to discover that our hometown boys weren't the stars of the evening. But the crowd was wild for Passion Pit. The floating dance floor of the Crystal Ballroom was fluctuating under the bopping teens' feet. I was there to see Hockey and I think they should have been the headliners. Ben has an amazing voice that is just as smooth and soulful live as it is on record. I've got to get up and dance when I hear that bassline and I've got a smile on my face when I listen to the lyrical wit. Those boys are talented and in a few years when folks are paying buco to look at them through binoculars at the Rose Garden I'll be proud to say I saw them when. Thanks, Hockey, for making this my December to Remember.

    Great Stuff

    by RikDog on 12/8/09McMenamins Crystal Ballroom - Portland

    Passion Pit was great in concert! The lead singer's voice was very good, the sound was balanced very well at the Crystal Ballroom, and the crowd loved it.

    Matt Pinfield's Holiday Extravaganza

    by Anonymous on 12/5/09Hammerstein Ballroom - New York

    The show was great but one down side: there was nowhere to sit. When I bought the tix, I wish I would have been informed about the option of buying tickets w/access to the balcony. I would have happily paid more for this. Once at the show, it was too late, and I have a bad knee.

    What a night!

    by Lizstomania on 12/4/09Hammerstein Ballroom - New York

    I had never been to the ballroom before, and I was really surprised how great the view was from anywhere in the crowd. I was sitting in Balcony 2, and it was a great sight seeing everyone in orchestra seats going wild. Manchester Orchestra was a good "warmup" for the night. Jack's Mannequin was very very good. But when Passion Pit went on, the energy of the crowd exploded. They were wonderful! Great set too. Last but not least, Phoeniz went on and wrapped up the night perfectly. I loved hearing Lisztomania and 1901 live, as well as some hits from other albums. I look foreward to seeing them win the Grammy for Best Alt. Rock album of the year. Because they will. GREAT SHOW.
