Members Of Dopapod & Soule Monde Cover ZZ Top's "La Grange" As RRRC At Nectar's [Video]

Members of Dopapod and Soule Monde joined forces at Nectar’s in Burlington, VT on Wednesday.

Announced just a couple weeks ago, the collaborative concert brought Dopapod frontman Rob Compa and bassist Chuck Jones together with Soule Monde, a keys/drums duo comprised of Trey Anastasio Band members Russ Lawton and Ray Paczkowski. Dubbed RRRC after the band members’ initials, the quartet played “Songs of Soule Monde, Dopapod & more.” One song included in the “& more” was a cover of “La Grange” by ZZ Top.

Check out footage of Russ Lawton, Ray Paczkowski, Rob Compa, and Chuck Jones, a.k.a. RRRC, playing ZZ Top’s “La Grange” at Nectar’s below.

Dopapod will embark on a run of winter tour dates with support from ManyColors and Yak Attack next month. The band recently performed at North Beach Music Festival with Lotus‘s Tim Palmieri subbing in on guitar for Rob Compa, who was busy welcoming a new baby. Compa will also join Club d’Elf for its 25th anniversary tour featuring John Medeski, Lyle Brewer (Neighbor), and Reeves Gabrels (The Cure).

Soule Monde has upcoming shows in March at The Stone Church Music Club in Newmarket, NH and Sun Tiki Studios in Portland, ME. For a full list of Dopapod dates and ticketing details, head to the band’s website, and for more on Soule Monde, visit the duo on Facebook
