 Everyone who knows jam bands knows the biggest, most obvious influences: Phish and the Grateful Dead.

But Norwalk, Connecticut’s Goose has switched things up a bit and found a shocking amount of success along the way. The band will headline two shows at Legend Valley in Thornville on June 10 and 11, for those who are up for a weekend trip about 30 minutes east of Columbus.

Goose’s sound has a strong indie rock element. Vampire Weekend fans may be interested to know that Goose was commissioned to cover the Vampire Weekend song “20:21” and jam it out to… well, you can guess. Goose’s upcoming album Dripfield, dropping later this month, only ups the indie charm. But indie fans may be surprised to learn that fans will be driving from all over Ohio to catch the Legend Valley dates.
