Dogs In A Pile, with Special Guest, Hayley Jane, to Bring Energetic, Genre-Blending Show to Putnam Place, March 17th

SARATOGA SPRINGS – Coming to Putnam Place on March 17th is Dogs In A Pile! The mystifying, genre-blending band’s show is part of their Winter Rescue Tour. Starting the event off is singer-songwriter Hayley Jane, backed by Dogs In A Pile; this will surely make for a captivating night of music!

The sandy shores of Asbury Park, New Jersey, are hallowed ground in the northeast; the rolling waves have ushered generations of venerated musicians to worldwide acclaim. Dogs in a Pile, an eclectic quintet, has emerged as the heir apparent to the town’s rich musical legacy. Merging funk, jazz, and rock and roll with psychedelia, the quintet presents a completely original vibe built on kaleidoscopic soundscapes eerily reminiscent of the days of yesteryear.

The Dogs employ a unified approach to performance and songwriting, crafting aural mosaics through adept instrumentation and humble precocity. As avid storytellers, they draw inspiration from personal experiences, balancing life’s foibles with ever-present youthful sanguinity.

Dogs began when Philadelphia University of the Arts guitar gun-slinger Jimmy Law began playing with young Joe Babick (drums), a student at the Count Basie Theater program in Red Bank, NJ. Lightning struck when they were introduced to Berklee School of Music student and bass player Sam Lucid, who immediately suggested fellow Berklee student and keyboard player Jeremy Kaplan. The addition of fellow Berklee student Brian Murray (guitar) in 2019 made for the quintessential final piece in the Dogs’ puzzle.

A string of successful local shows drove the development of a massive northeast fan base, affectionately known as the Dog Pound. The band’s astronomical growth culminated in an epic, sold-out performance at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park during the summer of 2021. Armed with a fresh batch of new material, Dogs in a Pile is taking its perpetually evolving testament to the Great American Songbook on tour in 2023, visiting plenty of new cities and spreading good music and good energy to good people along the way.

Hayley pulls inspiration from a variety of styles, including the 60s & 70s rock & pop, musical theater, folk, blues, soul, psychedelic, funk + bluegrass. Just as varied are the many ways she can captivate an audience. Whether the concentrated potency of her solo acoustic performance, the explosive energy, and movement of her full band shows, or one of her theatrical performances, she always brings the charisma, humor, and passion to move an audience.

Her music has been praised by a wide range of musicians, producers, and music lovers alike for successfully combining a diverse sound with clever, over-the-top lyrics and Vaudevillian-style storytelling. Hayley reawakens her audiences to the wild parts of themselves, great medicine for these modern times.
