Legend has it that this band is native to a Swedish village known for voodoo practices and worship.
[ 6/17 ] Union Transfer got a double dose of surf-psych vibes followed by foreign voodoo and bewitching with Goat and Holy Wave on Tuesday night. The crowd was a mix of young Philly neo-hippies and semi-professional old heads, all for one cause: to be entranced by the Led-Zeppelin-tribal-child that is Goat. Donned in masks and gypsy-reminiscent costumes — legend has it that this band is native to a Swedish village known for voodoo practices and worship — they played new tracks along with popular hits like "Run to Your Mama," "Diarabi," "StoneGoat," and "Goatman," which you can find on their 2012 album World Music.
