Jan 4, 8:00 PM

Pie Shop, Washington, D.C.

Advance GA $10 | Day of GA $12 Doors 7:30 | Show 8:00 All Ages

Founding members Dan Gage, Matt Febles, and brothers Daniel and David Rothman first played together at the Flashband 60’s Showcase in 2014. Higher Numbers started writing original songs that represent the members’ influences, ranging from classic rock, metal, to funk. Leader singer Ginny Hill, well-known in the DC music scene as the lead singer of The Perfectionists, joined the band in early 2018 for the NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia Fundraiser at the Black Cat main stage. That show rocked so hard that Ginny and the band joined forces permanently.  In December 2018, Higher Numbers released its first two singles, “The Road” and “I Know Your Name”, recorded at the famous Inner Ear Studios in Arlington, VA. The songs were recorded by friend of the band Cati Sesana and mixed by Dr. T.

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
