Dogs In A Pile (21+)

The sandy shores of Asbury Park, New Jersey are hallowed ground in the Northeast; the rolling waves have ushered generations of venerated musicians to worldwide acclaim. Dogs In A Pile, an eclectic quintet, has emerged as the heir apparent to the town’s rich musical legacy. Merging funk, jazz, and rock and roll with psychedelia, the band presents a completely original vibe built on kaleidoscopic soundscapes eerily reminiscent of the days of yesteryear.

The Dogs employ a unified approach to performance and songwriting, crafting aural mosaics through adept instrumentation and humble precocity. As avid storytellers, they draw inspiration from personal experiences, balancing life’s foibles with ever-present youthful sanguinity.

Dogs formed when Jersey Shore native and guitar gun-slinger Jimmy Law began playing with family friend Joe Babick (drums) at a young age. Lightning struck when they were introduced to Berklee School of Music student and bass player Sam Lucid, who immediately suggested fellow Berklee student and keyboard player Jeremy Kaplan. The addition of Berklee student Brian Murray (guitar) in 2019 made for the quintessential final piece in the Dogs’ puzzle.

A string of sold-out local shows drove the development of a massive Northeast fan base, affectionately known as the Dog Pound. As the band has traversed new territory, their astronomical rise has continued nationwide. Armed with an evolving catalog of material and cultivation of an identity unique to Dogs In A Pile, the quintet is laying down a musical and communal foundation most often associated with the scene’s most beloved acts

“DIZGO has one of the most operative names in the jamband scene, evoking atranscendence of genre: a dizzier disco, filled with a hodge-podge of genres, styles, andtechnical influences while still, at it’s core, a dance party.”-> Space Tapes

Dizgo redefines the live experience by blending jamtronica with funk, deep-groove soul, andpsychedelic rock, taking the audience on a musical journey that includes intricatecompositions and extended improvisation. The result is something both danceable andintrospective: soulful vocals, interweaving analog synths, and shredding guitar all which joinforces under the banner of Dizgo.

The band has played stand out performances at festivals such as Peach Music Festival,Summer Camp Music Festival, ResonanceMusic Festival, Werk Out Music Festival, SonicBloom Music Festival, and much more and has supported acts such as Goose, PigeonsPlaying Ping Pong, Papadosio, The Main Squeeze, Aqueous, Lespecial, and more.
