The dynamic progressive fusion rock trio Baked Shrimp from Long Island announced in a letter to fans that they are going on an indefinite hiatus, starting in February 2024.
Before disbanding though, the group is embarking on a farewell album release tour, coming to the Cutting Room, Funk ‘n Waffles, and The Hollow in January and February of 2024.
Baked Shrimp consists of Jared Cowen (Guitar/Vocals), Scott Reill (Bass/Vocals), and Jager Soss (Drums/Vocals). Together, they channel boundless energy, unique songwriting, and powerful improvisation, weaving into a symphonic odyssey that is their eclectic discography. During the years 2022 and 2023, the group performed over 215 concerts throughout the US and Canada, debuting at renowned events like the Peach Music Festival, Summer Camp Music Festival, Northlands Live, and Mile of Music.
They have played with the likes of Phil Lesh and provided direct support for the Disco Biscuits, Dopapod, Twiddle, and Andy Frasco & The U.N.
In their letter to fans, Baked Shrimp expressed gratitude for their fans and to venue and festival owners for “taking a chance on [them].” Going on, they said “These past seven years have been a privilege and honor getting to perform our original music with all of our heart and soul in front of your dancing, smiling, and loving faces from all different parts of the country. The three of us will cherish every one of these moments for the rest of our lives.”
The band is going separate ways, with each member pursuing their dreams and will still remain active in the music industry. Ending the announcement, the group wishes everyone well, saying “Stay safe, love and respect one another, enjoy the holidays, and we’ll see you for one last tour starting in January at home in NYC.”
