Pigeons Playing Ping Pong in Concert
Funky jam group Pigeons Playing Ping Pong formed in 2009 in Baltimore, Maryland, when its original members met in a University of Maryland dorm. Releasing their first LP, ‘Funk E P,' the following year, the band would quickly find their sound in an explosive, energetic mix of funk, jazz, and electronic music reminiscent of Phish, Lettuce, and even the Grateful Dead. Their second album, ‘Psychology' (2014), upped their game and featured better production, tighter songwriting, and more focused singing from vocalists Greg Ormont, Jeremy Schon, and Ben Carrey. In 2016's ‘Pleasure,' the band delivered a cornucopia of wailing organs, sprawling melodies, shimmering backbeats, and groovy riffs. The group served up more lighthearted, sprawling psych-tinged funk with 2017's ‘Pizazz.' Their single "Doc" found them thriving with crisp horns and saxophones, while the seductive, groovy "Somethin' For Ya" shows how a little disco goes a long way when it comes to infusing their music with sexiness.
Pigeons Playing Ping Pong has taken on a pretty hearty touring schedule, sometimes playing up to 200 shows a year. In addition, they've hosted Domefest in Bedford, Pennsylvania, since 2009, attracting nearly 2,000 people every year. Their passionate fanbase, affectionately called "The Flock," turns out to see them whenever possible, including for their New Year's Eve headlining shows. This in addition to their numerous officially released live recordings, which give a window into the raucous parties that are Pigeons Playing Ping Pong shows. 2017's ‘The Great Outdoors Jam' captured the ethereal vibes, locked-in grooves, and wayward solos that can be found in their live shows. In 2018, they hit their first Bonnaroo, continuing their ascent. As guitarist and singer Jeremy Schon tells it, their live show "puts out as much energy as possible and promotes lightheartedness and positivity." Suffice it to say, these funk obsessives must be seen live to be truly experienced.
This show was off the charts… The second day Domefest all stars set was mind blowing!! Can’t wait to go to my next PPPP show!!!
They put on a hell of a show. Small venue up close and personal. The band came to play.
PPPP was phenomenal. 2 sets of High energy performances lit up the entire venue.
It was an amazing - show loved the venue - the sound and lights were perfect. The bands were stellar - we had a meet and greet and that was super cool except we only got one signed poster and I had two tickets - what gives with that?
A non stop dance party. Music that makes a person feel good!
The Cap is a pleasure! East to get to ! Easy to navigate! Our seats were great and the music even greater! Karina Rykman’s band was a top opening act! Pigeons never disappoint!
Awesome show, clean venue, good people and a wicked nice experience of dancing and jamming
PPPP is fantastic and Marylanders are proud that they are popular nationally. A "must"go see live!
What a show! This was the only way I could have wanted to spend the evening. The venue shape is odd leading to some seats being awkward. It would have been nice to know about your security policy on lighters before arriving. +1 music -1 lighter =the best New Year 2024 possible
The warm up band was also super good and they were awesome additions to the pigeons when they played together. Heck of the show, perfect for NYE!! We were on the 3rd floor seating section, wish they had cupholders to put my beer in.
