Pigeons Playing Ping Pong Announce Return to Missoula in 2025

Psychedelic funk band Pigeons Playing Ping Pong is set to return to Missoula for their first headlining show at The Wilma on Sunday, March 23, 2025, with support from Scottish funk and disco outfit High Fade.

The Baltimore-based quartet first formed at the University of Maryland over a decade ago. Since then, they’ve played well over a thousand shows across the U.S., headlining tours and landing on major festival stages like Bonnaroo, Electric Forest, and Jazz Fest. Known for self-releasing their music, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong has released seven studio albums and racked up millions of streams. Their most recent album, Day in Time, dropped earlier this year.

Rolling Stone calls them “musical explorers,” Glide praises them as “a band that melts faces and pulls no punches,” Relix lauds the group’s “joyous” and “dance-worthy” style, and Jambase simply labels them a “powerhouse.” Get a feel for their sound and check out these top songs: “Horizon,” “Melting Lights,” and “Somethin’ for Ya.”

Pigeons know how to throw a party and have given Montanas some fantastic shows over the years (photos). With the added talent of up-and-comers High Fade, The Wilma is in for an extra dose of fun and funk. Snag your tickets ASAP!

About Pigeons Playing Ping Pong

If you ever wondered what “seizing the moment” sounds like personified, look no further than Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, the four-piece musical powerhouse known for their head-turning high-energy psychedelic funk shows. Infectious energy is an understatement.

The Maryland quartet — “Scrambled Greg” Ormont [vocals, guitar], Jeremy Schon [guitar, vocals], Ben [bass, vocals], and Alex “Gator” Petropulos [drums, vocals]—not only squeezes the juice out of every second, but they harness life’s energy within their hypnotic hybrid of funk, rock and psychedelic groove.

With a devout audience, affectionately known as “The Flock,” and a trail of sold-out tours behind them, the band takes a major step forward once again on their seventh full-length offering, Day In Time, released on April 26, 2024.

“This album is a snapshot of our band as a group and as individuals,” notes Greg. “The title serves as a reminder that life moves fast, so we better make the most of each day, make each second count. 15 years as a band have flown by. We started in college and now we’re all growing up, most of us have even become dads recently, so we’re evolving both personally and musically, and we’re happily embracing those changes.
