The Pogs

High Energy, Dancing, Face Melting Rock/Pop

In the Summer of 2012, a group of original musicians from the local Providence music scene banded together to start a side project playing music from the decade that molded them as musicians, the 90’s. Together they formed The Pogs (named after a silly fad from the 90s). The band worked hard to promote their first shows using grassroots methods they were familiar with from being in original bands their whole lives. It paid off, nearly breaking several attendance records for their first few concerts. Within 6 months The Pogs have become more than just a fun little side project as the members have all committed to making every show an insanely energetic performance not to be forgotten. 6 months after their formation The Pogs have been nominated for “Best Cover Band” by a reader’s poll in the Providence Phoenix and it’s no surprise with their amazingly supportive fan base, and high energy performances that immerse the audience in being part of the show, they’ve been able to create a full on 90’s party atmosphere.

We can provide our own sound if need be. We require electricity, a space to play that can fit six dudes with instruments, and we work best with venues that are expecting are prepared for a loud, high energy, fun group.
