On Saturday, Goose took the stage for their set at the inaugural Sacred Rose Festival, outside Chicago, in Bridgeview, Ill. The seven-song performance began with four originals leading up to a surprise appearance by country darling Margo Price, who joined the ensemble on a cover of Marvin Gaye’s “Baby Don’t You Do It.” To follow up on the first sit-in of the night, Goose brought out Vulfpeck’s Cory Wong to assist on “Hot Tea,” before the band ended their performance with “Dripfield.”
Goose kicked off their show with a jammed-out take on “Pancakes,” which came before a rendition of “Madhuvan,” a song that initially appeared on their 2021 album, Shenanigans Nite Club. “Madhuvan” gave way to the first track off their Dripfield LP, “Borne.” Then, the ensemble worked their way into another tune from their 2022 studio album, which dropped on June 24.
For their next number, Goose welcomed Price to the stage for a breathtaking performance of Gaye’s “Baby Don’t You Do It.” To follow Price’s impeccable assistance on the 1966 soul standard, Goose brought out Wong, who lent his talent on “Hot Tea” before the Connecticut jammers concluded their first-ever set at Sacred Rose with the title track off their latest offering, “Dripfield.”
After last night’s concert outside the Windy City, Goose will take a break from the road until they reconvene on stage at The National in Richmond, Va. For more tour dates, visit goosetheband.com.
