Dogs In A Pile

Dogs In A Pile (DIAP) have announced their 2025 Spring Tour, which includes a number of return trips to cities featuring larger venues.

Rising jam band artists Eggy and Dogs in a Pile co-headlined a post Turkey Day two night stand at the Capitol Theater. This was the first time that either band headlined this legendary 1800 person capacity venue, which has previously hosted both Jerry Garcia and Bob Dylan. Both bands brought some serious A game on Saturday, November 30, 2024.

Dogs In A Pile (DIAP), fresh off a two-night co-headlining run with Eggy at The Capitol Theatre, have announced their return home to Asbury Park, New Jersey, on Saturday, December 21. After making their Stone Pony Summer Stage debut during their tour with Pigeons Playing Ping Pong and Andy Frasco & The U.N. in May, DIAP will take the yearly holiday party to the indoor stage, continuing the tradition of celebrating a year full of marquee accomplishments.

Dogs in a Pile (DIAP) have announced an additional 11 dates to complete their 2025 Winter Tour slate. These new dates will follow their previous 12 performances across the West, covering Arizona, California, Washington, and Oregon.

Last Friday, October 25, 2024, was a difficult day for Grateful Dead fans, as jam rock bassist and patriarch Phil Lesh peacefully left this earth. The news began circulating around 5 p.m. EST, giving many bands, including Dogs in a Pile, enough time to prepare a tribute. The band was gearing up for a two-night run at the ever-welcoming Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia in Philadelphia, PA, and seized the opportunity to honor Lesh's legacy.

Get ready for an unforgettable evening as rising jam band sensation Dogs in a Pile takes the stage at Surf Hotel’s Ivy Ballroom on Wednesday, November 6th, 2024. This highly anticipated show promises to deliver an energetic night of improvisation, unique sounds, and genre-blending jams.

Our interview with Dogs In A Pile (DIAP) guitarist Jimmy Law takes us through his musical beginnings, deeply rooted in the vibrant scene of Asbury Park, New Jersey.

Dogs In A Pile (DIAP) have announced the first round of dates for their upcoming tour in January 2025, featuring a series of performances across the West Coast.

The tour kicks off on January 9 in Phoenix, AZ, at the Crescent Ballroom. The following night, the band will perform at the Belly Up in Solana Beach, CA on January 10.

Editor's Note: We interviewed Greg Ormont following Pigeons Playing Ping Pong's recent show at Pier 17, only to discover that our recording had failed due to technical difficulties. Despite our efforts to recover parts of the audio, we were unsuccessful, which was particularly disappointing as Ormont’s insights were incredibly honest and powerful. As a result, we incorporated our recollections of his words into this review of the show. He’s an incredible individual, and we hope you enjoy this mashup.

Dogs In A Pile (DIAP) is excited to announce additional headlining shows in Richmond, Baltimore, and the Boston area as part of their already robust 2024 Fall Tour. This announcement continues to build momentum for the band following the recent news of their Relix-presented co-headlining debut at the historic Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY, with Connecticut-based quartet Eggy on November 29 and 30.
