Biography
Poi Dog Pondering keeps thriving because their ethic has always been about following their heart. Their steadfast independence has allowed them to perennially bloom. From bohemian street buskers to impossible to market major label sacrificial lambs, to hard won autonomy with their own record label; Poi dog pondering have ripened into staunchly independent musical voyagers. They have let every sound that excited them flow through their music and flood it with ever changing colors: Orchestral, Acoustic and Electronic textures. Rock Band Disco, Chicago Stepper Soul & their unique 'Soul Sonic Orchestra' 'Acous-tronic' Sound. (Threaded all along the way with 'heart on the sleeve' lyrics that embrace the beauty and pain of everyday life). PDP has been recorded by Texas Hotel Records, Sony/Columbia records, Tommy Boy records & Platetectonic. 33 years down the line there is a bolstered sense of history within the band now. A swagger that comes from having steadfastly carved their own path. It is quite apparent that PDP has always been, and ever will be, in-it-for-the-love-of-it. Founder, Frank Orrall surrounds him self with players with strong roots & deep personal history, open to new sounds and ready to experiment. That's what keeps it vibrant. 15 band members deep; Poi Dog Pondering, with their ever present irreverence to stylistic conformity, continue to grow & evolve. New PDP Album to Be released fall 2018.
