The 2023 Levitate Music & Arts Festival made a huge splash this past weekend receiving a 10 for style, a 10 for creativity, and a 10 for overall great vibes as this wicked sweet New England festival celebrated its 10th anniversary! Born out of the basement of a surf shop bearing the same name back in 2003, Levitate is still embodying all that is creative, connected to nature, and community-oriented in New England.

Goose performed before their largest crowd to date for their debut at the lush and organic Saratoga Performing Arts Center, also known as SPAC, in Saratoga Springs, NY on July 7, 2023. This venue is a couple of hour drive from their home state of Connecticut and surely represents their home territory. Over twelve thousand of their fans showed up for what proved to be an epic performance full of jam rock and improvisation.

Goose returned to the Stone Pony Summer Stage, located in the parking lot of the famed Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ on July 4th, 2023. The township decided to host their annual display on July 3rd, which forced the band to do the only thing they know: deliver a killer show full of exploratory jams and light up Independence Day in place of the fireworks.

Goose, the rising jam squad from Connecticut, descended into Asbury Park, NJ on July 3, 2023, for their first stint at the Stone Pony Summer Stage. This was not just any night, as the township of Asbury Park planned to set off a huge fireworks display on the beach behind the venue. Goose timed their second set to coordinate with the fireworks, and the rest was history as far as this band delivering a truly epic two-set show.

Goose returned for an epic round two at the legendary Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, CA on April 28, 2023, complete with Phil Lesh as a special guest in the presidential suite overlooking the stage. The band knocked this performance out of the park at this well known and culturally significant venue in the Union Square neighborhood by doing what they do every night: create fresh, exploratory, and creative jams.

Goose descended into the Bay Area on April 27, 2023 for an inspired show at the storied Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, CA, where the Grateful Dead played 15 shows and Jerry played 88 shows. This self-described indie jam band from Connecticut has been turning heads around the country as they continue to flourish and unleash original music with raging jams. This show included plenty of this, as well as a pair of notable covers.

Goose concluded their spring tour and west coast trip on Saturday with a jam-heavy evening at the Cal Coast Open Air Theater on the campus of San Diego State University.

Goose returned to The Met Philly on March 25, 2023, after the raging inferno they set off the night prior, and decided to add more fuel to the improvisational fire. They delivered two spirited covers, numerous teases, and of course plenty of extended, raucous jams for the sold out crowd in Philadelphia, PA.

Goose, the head turning, indie jam rock band from Connecticut, followed their galvanized performances at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY and the Roadrunner in Boston, Mass with another mind melting musical experience at the iconic Met Philly in Philadelphia, PA on March 24, 2023. The City of Brotherly Love is no stranger to blazing hot jams from this band, as Goose delivered a pair of ragers at the Fillmore Philadelphia in 2022.

Six sets of music in, the jams and song selection by Goose remained impressive. Every component of their five night run was magically falling into place. This included another sold out night of music at the Capitol Theatre on March 11, 2023.
