Pigeons Playing Ping Pong

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.

Feed The Fire shatters boundaries through adventurous collaboration. The band invited

Nashville virtuoso Wes Bailey (Moon Taxi) to co-write the title track's spiraling guitar hooks—a

first for the group. "As soon as I played him the demo, he came up with the soaring lead melody

on the spot. It ended up being our first true collaborative writing experience," recalls Schon. In

another debut, Ben Carrey steps into the lead vocal spotlight on his heartfelt groove anthem

“Hit The Ground Runnin’.” Horn collaborators Here Come The Mummies and West End Blend

amplify tracks like “Fantasy” and “Calm Before The Storm,” while guest producer Chalk Dinosaur

enhances the psychedelic layers on “Twitch” and “Underworld.”

The band's relentless evolution is evident in standout tracks like the buoyantly infectious "Right

Track," which distills their live energy into a concise message of resilience and self-trust.

According to Schon, "Every album we make is a reflection of where we are personally and

musically. For Feed The Fire, we really leaned into exploring textures, pushing our boundaries,

and letting the songs guide us." From the patient disco-funk simmer of "Fantasy" to the driving

rebel cry of "Undivided," the album showcases the band’s sharpened musicianship and

rhythmic intuition.

Ultimately, Feed The Fire is more than an album title—it's a rallying cry emblematic of Pigeons

Playing Ping Pong’s enduring philosophy. Refreshingly dynamic, resonant, and irresistibly

danceable, it marks a milestone release poised to captivate listeners across genres. Ormont

sums it up perfectly: "We've been given the gift of this fire, this passion. So it's our responsibility

to nurture it, embrace it, and spread it wild. Because when the band and fans reach new heights

together, that's the real spark.”
