Dreamgoats, Bronco Bama, Rami Atassi’s Cosmic Dance Band

Dreamgoats is a strange but sweet psych/folk band made up of a bunch weirdos who really just like playing together. It’s singer-songwriter meets wild, synth-y textures and raucous percussion. It’s just dreamy enough to be delightful and goat-y enough to buck you in the balls. Most importantly, Dreamgoats is Joy and the gate is always open.
