Guthrie Bell Productions presents Ominous Seapods

Ominous Seapods are Max Verna, Tom Pirozzi, Brian Mangini and Ted Marotta. They were an integral part of the 90’s Jamband scene who frequently performed with or along side bands such as moe., Disco Biscuits and God Street Wine. Although one member, Dana Monteith,moved to Australia, they reformed and are currently playing select dates around the Northeast as a 4 piece often with special guests. Their shows include all the favorites in the Seapod’s original catalog along with a few choice covers and some brand new songs as well.

Ominous Seapods built a dedicated fanbase by touring the nation relentlessly throughout the 1990’s and into the early 2000’s. They played such notable venues as Red Rocks in Colorado, the Wetlands Preserve in NYC, and the House of Blues in LA, Boston and Chicago as well countless large outdoor festivals. They released 3 studio albums and 2 live. Richard Gehr of Spin magazine called their album, Jet Smooth Ride, one of the top ten jam band releases of all time.

Their music is known for its tight grooves, intense jams, catchy hooks and quirky humor. Each live Seapod’s show is a purely unique experience that captures the essence of their touring 90’s years but still evolves as a new and exciting project!

The Seapods have played a February show at Lark Hall to packed crowds for the previous two years and can’t wait to do it again in 2025. They will be joined by mandolin and guitar virtuoso, Josh Himmelsbach and as always will have some surprises in store!
