Acts like Goose and Billy Strings are turning livestream success into big time touring opportunities.
When the jam band Goose kicked off its five-night Bingo virtual tour last June, the Connecticut quartet wanted to mix things up beyond improvising through changing setlists every show. So it introduced a bingo machine that spit out balls with musical and aerobic challenges for the band maybe covering Bob Dylan’s “Shelter From the Storm” or Kenny Loggin’s “I’m Alright,” or else running a lap around the barn where they filmed the series.
“They’re always looking for ways to make each show feel different,” says
GRAMMY® award-winning bluegrass quintet, the
Infamous Stringdusters are very pleased to announce a series of fall dates, their first full tour since March 2020.
The Infamous Stringdusters Andy Falco [guitar], Chris Pandolfi [banjo], Andy Hall [dobro], Jeremy Garrett [fiddle], and Travis Book [double bass) - will embark on a 14-day tour, starting at the Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY with a dip down into the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic.
