Pigeons Playing Ping Pong

Psychedelic jam-funk quartet Pigeons Playing Ping Pong announced plans for a four-night run through the midwest for this December. The band will kick things off on December 7 in Cleveland, OH with support from Ohio based jamtronica group Broccoli Samurai followed by a stop at Park West in Chicago, IL. The band then teams up with neo-psychedelic quintet Houseplant in Covington, KY at the Madison Theater and closes out the run in Detroit, MI at Saint Andrew’s Hall with the midwest-based jam-pop group The North 41.

Psychedelic jam-funk quartet Pigeons Playing Ping Pong announced their New Year’s Eve 2023 plans today with a two-night stand at House Of Blues in Boston, MA on December 30-31.

“Boston has always been one of the rowdiest cities we’ve ever played,” said frontman “Scrambled Greg” Ormont. “From the first time we ever played in the Northeast, we were blown away by their wild energy. We already know they’re going to bring the heat for our first new year’s run in Boston and they know we’ll do the same and then some.”

The second day of the Northlands Music and Arts Festival, June 17, 2023, was considerably soggier than the day prior in Swanzey, NH. Several earlier acts escaped the rain, but everyone in attendance took a bath on this day. Music festivals are rain or shine, and most fans were prepared for the slosh-fest.

Baltimore jam-funk quartet Pigeons Playing Ping Pong returned to Legend Valley in Thornville, OH this weekend for their annual music festival, Domefest.

Kanika Moore), The Magic Beans, Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers and more on the lineup, this year’s edition was never in doubt of producing some of that classic Dome-magic.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong returned for another night of high flying funk and good times at the Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY on April 14, 2023. They played a rare three night stand at the well known New York City venue. Night two was one for the ages and almost non-stop for two sets. Several members of the indie soul band Melt joined the fun at various points.

Three night stands are a luxury for jam rock fans and bands, as neither has to travel and can enjoy the surroundings for the run's duration. This was certainly the case for Pigeon's Playing Ping Pong's three night run at the famed Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY, which kicked off on April 13, 2023. The band rewarded their dedicated fans with a Thursday night inferno at the former warehouse in the popular Williamsburg neighborhood, which included two hot covers.
