Brooklyn band Geese performed a new track called Apollo during their European tour stop in Berlin. The psychedelic song featured frontman Cameron Winter repeating 'I’m going to the moon' over Krautrock-style drums and guitars. It built to a clubby crescendo as part of the encore at Astra on March 15.
Geese played Berlin’s Astra on March 15, debuting Apollo in the encore. The punchy, spacey song has a psychedelic sound, with Cameron Winter chanting “I’m going to the moon” amid Krautrock-like drum beats and psychedelic guitars, escalating into a clubby finish. This follows sightings of band members in an Australian studio this month with musicians from Tame Impala, Pond and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, potentially influencing the psych-rock direction. The track extends the style of their third album, Getting Killed, released in September and named NME’s best album of 2025. NME described it as “an absurd, poetic explosion of jazz, rock and noise – where Radiohead, Black Midi, The Strokes, Van Morrison, and Ukrainian choir samples collide,” praising its melody and control amid chaos, declaring it the album of the year to signal New York guitar music’s vitality. Recently, Geese appeared on Saturday Night Live on January 24 as musical guests with host Teyana Taylor, performing Au Pays du Cocaine and Trinidad from Getting Killed. They won International Group of the Year at the 2026 BRIT Awards on February 2 at Manchester’s Co-op Live, beating Haim, Tame Impala, HUNTR/X and Turnstile. Drummer Max Bassin accepted from Cat Burns and said: “What up the Brits! I just want to say, free Palestine, fuck ICE, RIP Mani, let’s go Geese.” The speech was censored on ITV’s UK broadcast. Earlier this month, Mac DeMarco and Winter were seen doing karaoke in Japan. Geese continue their European tour, with UK dates including March 20 at Electric Bristol, March 25 at O2 Forum Kentish Town in London, August 26 at Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, and September 1 at Troxy in London.
