Dogs In A Pile took part in the Flood City Music Festival at Peoples Natural Gas Park in Johnstown, Pennsylvania on Friday. Trey Anastasio Band’s Jennifer Hartswick helped the New Jersey-based group unveil a cover of the Doobie Brothers classic “What A Fool Believes,” written by Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins.

Dogs In A Pile launched their Flood City set with bassist Sam Lucid’s “Westward” ahead of guitarist Brian Murray’s “Nicolette,” new tune “Dangers of Rah Rah” and the band’s cover of the Cab Calloway oldie “Minne the Moocher.”

As Dogs negotiated “The Bag,” they had to vacate the stage due to weather passing through but returned to the stage shortly and continued with “Shenanigans” before stretching “Chop Shop” to nearly 13 minutes. The band then fit “EDM Song” within staple “Bubble” to seal the set.
