Fans of Goose have been delighted to learn that their favorite post-modern jam band is to play at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, NY on Saturday, October 1 on a triple headline bill - sharing the stage with Cougar Magnet, and Dead Grass-- all three bands being billed as Garcia's All Stars. Garcia's is the little sister venue of the much larger Capitol Theater. As such the night represents a graduation for all three of these bands, whose stars are all on the rise.

Goose are promoting their recent album "Moon Cabin" which they released in 2015, recorded, mixed and mastered by Factory Underground, with promotion and marketing by Factory Underground Records. The album has so far reached #108 on college radio charts, and is making a play for Mediabase and Non-Commerical, community-based radio stations from coast to coast-- the friendly, easy listening blend of catchy vocal melodies and jam-respectable guitar and organ solos seems to have no bounds in potential.
