Alt-Pop Band OK Go Bubbles With Shifting Perspective

Soundcheck | Jun 9, 2025

The melodic power pop band OK Go, as much a visual art ensemble as they are a rock band, has just released its first new album in over a decade. It’s called And The Adjacent Possible, and it’s full of relatively small songs with some really big ideas. It also means there are some new entries into the catalog of how-did-they-do-that videos that OK Go has become famous for. The band plays new songs and an oldie in-studio for the Soundcheck Podcast - sans treadmills. 

Set list: 1. A Stone Only Rolls Downhill 2.This Too Shall Pass 3.Love
