Dopapod w/ The Nth Power at The State Theatre (State College, PA)--The State Theatre welcomes jamtronica act, Dopapod, into our theatre for the first time with opening act, The Nth Power on Sunday, October 4th!
The Boston born but ever on-the-go, Dopapod, has come a long way from their college basement, DIY party roots. The past four years have individually held the weight of about 150 shows, which have included numerous festival appearances. All of this time on stage with each other has given the band the opportunity to explore the wide variety of influences that has impacted them to be the players they are today.
But, don’t be quick to think that the no holds barred experimentation is unguided. While the brush in their hand uses every color, it’s the stroke on the canvas that gives Dopapod a distinct voice in the way of crafty songwriting. That calculated, compositional mindset and restless nature to never sit too still is what has allowed Dopapod to fully realize their fourth studio release, Never Odd Or Even. Guitarist/vocalist Rob Compa giddily tells, “We really felt that the material this time around represented a big leap forward, not just in the way we’ve been interacting as a band, but in the way our focus has become sharper in paying attention to things like melody, theme, lyrical imagery, and structure – all the elements that make a great song.”
Nth Power Proving that soul music can be exponentially greater than the sum of its parts, The Nth Power is on a mission to share the light. Formed during an impromptu latenight jam at Jazz Fest 2012 in New Orleans, the relentlessly funky and soulful band believes in music as a higher power—tapping into an energy that is simultaneously sexy and spiritual, with songs that will inspire audiences to dance, groove, make love or just stand there with goose bumps.
