On the heels of a successful set at the LOCKN’ festival and ahead of an extensive fall tour, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong announced two-nights in Washington D.C., with a date at the 9:30 Club on Sept. 6 and a headlining gig at The Anthem on Sept. 7.

Over their career, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong have played quite a few sold-out shows at the 9:30 Club, but their Sept. 7 gig at The Anthem is the largest-announced venue in the band’s history. “To say we’re excited to make our debut at The Anthem would be an understatement,” said PPPP frontman Greg Ormont. “We’ve been working our way up the ladder in D.C. for years, starting in the smallest of venues and loving every step of the process. We’ll be thinking about all of those D.C. memories when we headline our biggest show to date at The Anthem this December.”

Tickets to these shows go on sale this coming Thursday, August 29 at 10 a.m. ET, with an artist pre-sale on Wednesday August 28 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. ET, with the access code “PIGEONS.”Pigeons Playing Ping Pong’s fall tour begins on August 31 in Lake George NY at the Adirondack Independence Music Festival.
