(HOLMDEL, NJ) -- Connecticut rock band Goose comes to the PNC Banks Arts Center in Holmdel on Sunday, September 1, 2024 as part of a US tour spanning the country with dates throughout the fall. All this comes after an extensive spring tour, Goose's first with their new drummer, Cotter Ellis; Ellis made his debut with the band in four stunning, sold out nights in April at the legendary Capitol Theatre in Portchester, NY. Showtime is 7:30pm.
To mark the occasion, Goose released Ted Tapes 2024, an album comprised of instrumental improvisations captured during Ellis’s auditions on drums. The electricity from these first moments is intimate and unbelievable, captured here on tape and on display on tour this fall.
“These Ted Tapes tracks are improvisational moments from the first few sessions with Cotter," explains guitarist, lead singer Rick Mitarotonda, "Recorded solely for the purpose of reference, not intended for any kind of release. The instruments and microphones were rigged up quickly, and the playing was raw and free from any expectations. The first track, 'Leo,' is the opening pick up jam from the first session, the first notes ever played together. There were some consistent threads we all felt in the room throughout these early sessions; ease of communication, freely flowing ideas, and a feeling of effortlessness moving through different zones. We experienced a patience that allowed all of our personalities to come out and energy to well up in new ways. It feels like a door just beginning to open. We couldn’t be more stoked for what’s to come.”
Tickets are available for purchase online. PNC Bank Arts Center is located at Exit 116 of the Garden State Parkway in Holmdel, New Jersey.
Goose released their debut album in 2016 and quickly took flight, playing countless shows while steadily amassing a fervent fan following for their unique brand of irresistible songcraft, fluid musicianship, and spirited improvisational performance. 2022 proved a career-defining year for the Connecticut-based quintet with their critically acclaimed third studio album, Dripfield. Fueled by such hypnotic tracks as “Hungersite” (which spent multiple weeks among the top 10 at Triple A radio outlets nationwide), the album proved a phenomenon, debuting at #2 on Billboard’s “Top New Artist Albums” chart amidst critical applause from such national outlets as Rolling Stone, which hailed it as “both sweet headphone ear candy and the foundation for a perfect live peak.”
