Event Details

For Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, music is a living flame—one demanding relentless tending, fresh kindling, and the collective breath of community to sustain it. On their eighth studio album, Feed The Fire (No Coincidence Records), the Baltimore quartet—“Scrambled Greg” Ormont [vocals, guitar], Jeremy Schon [guitar, vocals], Ben Carrey [bass, vocals], and Alex “Gator” Petropulos [drums, vocals]—push their psychedelic funk odyssey into its most expansive incarnation yet. Across sixteen years, eight albums, and countless sweat-soaked performances, Pigeons have mastered transformation, deepening their connection with their devoted fanbase and channeling life’s seismic shifts into fuel for their unquenchable fire. “The ‘fire’ represents our passion,” explains Ormont. “Making music feels like something we were born to do… Feed The Fire is the perfect metaphor for our unwavering commitment to keep evolving.” Significant milestones, from headlining major stages to their fan-centric Domefest, underscore their remarkable journey.
