Rig Rundown: Goose's Peter Anspach and Rick Mitarotonda
Музыка
“Are you guys with the band?” A pleasant passerby asked while we were loading out camera gear near the Goose tour bus parked outside Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl.
“No, we’re just here to do an interview.” I responded.
“Oh man, tell the band that last night’s concert was uh-mazing,” exclaimed the joyous fan. “We’ll be talking about it for years to come.”
And with that sort of impassioned, infectious positivity, Goose is following the freeform footsteps of the Grateful Dead, Phish, Dave Matthews Band, and Umphrey’s McGee-where polished, recorded albums are secondary to improvisation-rich, snowflake-unique performances that illicit exchanges like that above. (Adding to their jam-band credit, they livestream most shows, and guitarist Peter Anspach mixes the band’s gigs for release shortly afterwards.)
Formed in 2014, the quintet currently includes: Peter Anspach (guitar, keys, vocals), Jeff Arevalo (percussion, vocals), Ben Atkind (drums), Rick Mitarotonda (guitar, lead vocals), and Trevor Weekz (bass). The Northeast-based crew has released two albums (2016’s Moon Cabin and 2021’s Shenanigans Nite Club), an EP (2020’s Night Lights), and Dripfield is on the horizon, for release on June 24.
However, the recorded songs are just guideposts and mile markers. It is all about the live experience. The band often performs two sets, without an opener, and keeps fans on their toes with natural, symbiotic excursions and unlikely, progressive covers. The first evening of their sold-out, two-night run in Nashville saw them flex their musical adeptness and vocabulary with covers of Wes Montgomery (“Switchin’”) and Steppenwolf (“Magic Carpet Ride”).
Their word-of-mouth growth has elevated them to cross several milestones in 2022. They sold out their first arena (Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut) and followed that with sell-outs at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre and historic Radio City Music Hall. So you can plan on seeing these birds fly high for years to come.
Before Goose’s second sold-out show in Nashville, PG was invited onstage to catalog their current setups. In this Rundown, guitarists Peter Anspach and Rick Mitarotonda show off their all-night 6-string costars, detail the pedals that help them warp space and time for organic odysseys, and Mitarotonda explains how a looper helps him from hitting mental walls and getting cornered in redundant guitar-playing boxes.

@@AndrewJDuddy their jams are good but they need to be more exploratory with them and try new things, I've noticed some repetitiveness sometimes where they rely too much on the fast jam style out the gate instead of maybe starting slow, getting dark and dirty with some funk and build it. They did a great job at Red Rocks in the first set but the second set was too repetitive

Love Goose. Great Rig Rundown. I love even more that people are casually hanging out with their pin-pals and bowling in the background. Fantastic!
Great Rig Rundown! These guys are blowing me away! Great songs and great musicianship!
“So ready” for this …….
I love their clear commitment to their roles in the band. It definitely shows in their music. Just a great band.
23:25 Strike! These guys rule, I got real excited from the teasers. Can't wait to see them sometime.

What's on Rick's mic stand? I know it must be part of the vocal effects, I wish they hadn't skipped over that tho! *Edit/update: After some digging around, I think it might be a mixer for his in-ear monitors. I think it's a Midas DP48* (for anyone else who was as curious about it as I was)

I’m finally related to someone who is into music. Rick’s Dad was my cousin.
OMG! All I do is play piano and a bit of guitar. Amazing. Humbling.
Could have sworn I saw an upgraded Alessandro 64 speaker in Peters Deluxe. I have the same speaker in mine and know exactly what they look and sound like. One of the best Speakers going( I did have my 65 stripped and re wired by George Alessandro) we tried many speakers. Turned out in a blind test, I chose Georges own. Correct me if I’m wrong or if it was a different deluxe all together. But I saw that speaker.
what version of the lovepedal overdrive does he use?? V2 V3?? Ive seen the black v3 but does it work the same as ricks version???
Cool guy. Big talent.
“It was ran over by a car…” “Do you know who the person was who…” “Um. I … I did it. I ran it over!” 🤭 That’s just awesome. We need the bigger story. 😂
12:19 “I love whipping it out when we get weird” Same Peter…Samez
Lovely
Gooooooooooose!!!!!!
Peter is incredibly talented. The whole band is
Peter looks like he's wearing the moustache/glasses disguise Halloween costume
Nice!👍
Very interesting, the different approaches these guys take. I have thought that Rick's tone is amazingly consistent but then he goes and says the knobs get moved around all the time and he just goes with it, lol.
Any chance we can get an updated rundown? Rick just started using a deluis guitar and new amps since taboose tour.
That Fender is a beast
Dude, Groucho Marx's grandson is amazing!
Take a shot every time Peter says “I love it”
That Strymon Flint is sick!
Anyone able to see what pick Rick is using? I’m curious.
The Timeline at 39:57 reminds me of Small Hours by John Martyn. Nice sound.
