Pond at 7th Street Pond Setlist
|
Psychedelic rock band Pond (Nick Allbrook, Jay Watson, Joe Ryan and Jamie Terry) is played the 7th Street Entry on Wednesday, October 24th.
Opening the show was Denver (but based in Los Angeles currently) Sur Ellz, with, “a brand new setup”, referring to his music machine. His style is laidback soul with lots of loops and beats.
The new music setup had its problem, as on his last song, he had some technical difficulties and the song was delayed… but it didn’t really go over the given 30-min time slot.
Fresh from their recent appearance at Desert Daze, Australia’s Pond (not to be confused with American 90s band Pond) has sold out their 7th Street Entry appearance. It shouldn’t be a surprise, given how hot psych rock is at the moment… and the fact that Pond’s members are also in the incredibly popular Tame Impala. At Desert Daze, on the
first night, Jess wrote, “Australian band Pond, founded by Tame Impala’s touring members Nick Allbrook and Jay Watson started their set with 30,000 Megatons off their 2017 album The Weather. This track makes me think of David Bowie’s Space Oddity, and Nick Allbrook himself is an alien and bizarre and alive. Fascinating to watch and never skipping a beat, this band is a riot and dazzled the crowd right into basically the entirety of The Weather, and also debuted the song “Burned Out Star”. This one was a true crowd-pleaser and nice little warm-up to the anticipated Tame Impala set.”
What else can we add about the 7th Street Entry show, is that given a headlining time, the band can stretch out their songs, almost jam-like. It’s not uncommon for a five minute song to become ten minutes live. Again, starting with set intro song “30,000 Megatons”, the boys rocked with leader Nick Allbrook doing some of his most funkiest dance moves.
The group mostly played songs from their seventh studio album
The Weather, including their title track as set closer.
