Vulfpeck Announces West Coast “Greek Week” Shows

125

Vulfpeck has added two more shows to their slim calendar for 2019. The low-volume funk masters will make their debut appearance at The Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA on July 13th and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on July 14th, with opening support from fellow collaborator Joey Dosik both nights.

Dubbed “Greek Week”, this announcement marks another monumental success for the band, who are also celebrating their eighth full-length album, Hill Climber. With the Berkeley venue capping 8,500 and the Los Angeles theatre at 5,870, the run will mark their largest yet on the west coast. Tickets to both shows will go on sale here.

Earlier this year, the band announced their debut at New York City’s iconic Madison Square Garden on Saturday, September 28th. The show will feature support from another Vulf-related band, The Fearless Flyers, marking just their second-ever live performance. The only other scheduled performances for Vulfpeck this year are at Red Rocks with support from Khruangbin and Cory Henry (sold out) and LOCKN’ Music Festival in Arrington, VA.

Vulfpeck has seen a quick rise to the top over the last few years, hitting some of the country’s most exciting music festivals and stages despite avoiding a traditional approach to touring. The Ann Arbor, MI-bred funk outfit experienced the majority of their early fame on the Internet in response to their clever music videos and unusual digital marketing.

Since breaking into the international live music scene, the band—comprised of multi-instrumentalist Jack Stratton, bassist Joe Dart, keyboardist Woody Goss, and drummer/guitarist/vocalist Theo Katzman—has sold out headlining concerts worldwide, including almost all of their North American stops in 2017 and 2018 plus shows in Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, Glasgow, London, and Dublin. To call Vulfpeck a phenomenon is a huge understatement, as they’ve captured the respect and attention of most living funk lords today.

Fans can also assume that regular touring members Cory Wong (guitar), Antwaun Stanley (vocals), and Joey Dosik (keyboards, saxophone) will be on hand for collaborations along with the rest of the band’s talented roster.
