Next Wednesday (February 19), Philly indie rockers Dr. Dog’s psychedelic circus will come through town on a bill that includes trippy New Jersey duo Saint Rich and looping folk singer Moses Sumney. A welcomed face in the local scene, Dr. Dog’s ties to the Crescent City stem from its tenure with Park the Van Records, which delivered the band’s first three full-lengths including its effervescent ’07 breakthrough We All Belong. In ’09, Dr. Dog signed on to iconic indie outpost ANTI-, which has gone on to release the group’s subsequent three albums, including its latest effort, the erratically incendiary B-Room in October.
Dr. Dog comes to the Civic Theatre on Wednesday, February 19, 2014.
More recently, in January, Dr. Dog and Saint Rich combined to release the Casual Free Fall Tour EP prior to hitting the road together. The four-song set, which is available for free on Noise Trade, features a single off of each band’s current album as well as Dr. Dog’s cover of Saint Rich’s “Crying From the Home” and Saint Rich’s cover Dr. Dog’s “Rock & Roll.” The thirty-show Casual Free Fall tour, which kicked off in late January, winds down in mid-March. Tickets for the tour’s New Orleans stop range from $22 to $30 and are available online via Ticketmaster. Doors to the Civic Theatre will open at 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, February 19, and the concert will begin at 9:00. The Civic Theatre is located at 510 O’Keefe Avenue (map).
