Their music has reached fans through ESPN, the NFL and NHL, as well as in Need for Speed and Madden, helping push their Spotify streams past 140 million.

    Dogs In A Pile

    Common Chord, 129 N Main St, Davenport · verified Aug 2
    See details

    Dogs In A Pile brings its jam band sound to Common Chord for a night of adventurous grooves and free-flowing improvisation. Tickets are $28 in advance and $32 at the door. Hailing from Asbury Park, New Jersey, this five-piece has been logging about 130 performances a year since 2022, letting the road fuel a swiftly expanding catalog of original music. Their latest release, Distroid, gathers ten tracks that put long-requested live staples into focused studio form, moving from tight, melody-forward funk and jazz-tinged psych rock to extended journeys marked by crisp unison passages, quick stylistic pivots and vibrant soloing. The lineup features guitarists Jimmy Law and Brian Murray, keyboardist Jeremy Kaplan, bassist Sam Lucid and drummer Joe Babick. A nod to a Grateful Dead lyric, their name hints at a wide-ranging sound that touches storyteller Americana, bluegrass, exploratory jazz, pop-rock finesse and deep-pocket rhythms that flow through funk, Latin and reggae. Their community of fans across the country, known as the Dog Pound, is part of the fabric that surrounds the band’s live presence.
