The NYC rock group are set to play in cities including Vancouver and San Francisco over the coming weeks; however, Denver’s crowd were treated to the special auction. After getting a flat tyre on the road to the show, which took place at Denver’s Gothic Theatre, they decided to raffle it off in aid of Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition.

The tyre raffle ended up being won by a fan called Grant, who got a phone call from frontman Cameron Winter on stage during the encore of the show.

In addition to auctioning off a flat tyre and making the announcement on stage, the group also made their Denver show special by live tour debuting their track ‘First World Warrior’ from Geese’s 2021 debut ‘Projector’, which is a fan favourite.

In a glowing five-star review of ‘Getting Killed’, NME wrote: “There’s so much going on in this album that it feels like it would have been easy for the five-piece to lose sight of the bigger picture, yet for all its abrupt shifts and intricate details, ‘Getting Killed’ somehow doesn’t ever feel like there’s too much at play or like its creators aren’t in complete control.

“Instead, this is a band living up to their reputation as exhilaratingly free-spirited, not so much proving they deserve all the accolades and fervent fanaticism bubbling around them but demanding it.”

Geese’s previous album, ‘3D Country’, appeared on NME‘s 50 best albums of 2023 list, where it was hailed for capturing “a sound far more expansive than most bands at this stage of their career”.

Speaking to NME about the record that year for The Cover, Geese explained that they were “always going to shift focus, no matter our situation”.
