Currently, Ceramic Animal could be described as a couple-a nasty boys from outside of Philadelphia playing psychedelic garage-yacht. However, starting March 2, 2019 it will be more accurate to describe them as a couple-a nasty boys from outside of Philadelphia playing psychedelic garage-yacht all over the USA! Yes that’s right, Ceramic Animal is going on a 20 date nationwide co-headlining tour with Spendtime Palace, hitting cities such as Denver (3.2), Seattle (3.5), Portland (3.6), Los Angeles (3.10), New York (3.29), and many more as well as a stop at SXSW. Check out the full list of dates below.
The five-piece outfit consists of three brothers: Warren Regan (vox/guitar), Elliott Regan(keys/vox), Erik Regan (drums) as well as the not-brothers-but-highly-brotherly Dallas Hosey (bass/vox) and Ant Marchione (guitar). The group independently released its first album The Cart in August 2016 and the follow-up album The Horse in August 2018, drawing comparisons to artists like Mac DeMarco and Foxygen. Both albums (written, mixed, and produced by Warren Regan) are paragons of modern – and also future and past – music, better described by WXPN’s The Key who said the band is, “combining soulfulness borrowed from The Doors with the slacker vibe of dad rockers everywhere… breaking down rock and roll barriers.”
