So, I might be the real David Bennett from obscure robot band Steam Powered Giraffe, or I might have $8. You can’t be certain!
But just for the record, I did not pay $8 a month or whatever to have a checkmark 😬

The band (Steam Powered Giraffe) is finally headed back to the stage in January 26th 2024. Tickets here:
I want to post a few answers to some questions that I’ve been answering from fans that I think may be relevant!

Just wanted to say thank you to all the Steam Powered Giraffe fans who purchased tickets to our January 2024 show. I was only slightly nervous that maybe it wouldn’t sell (we haven’t done a show since Feb 2020).
Going to be a full theater. There’s still a few seats left. Link:

I heard playtesters for the game got the new songs stuck in their heads and I can't guarantee that will happen to you but to quote one of the devs during development
"These are some of the best SPG songs I've heard".
PRE-ORDER the band's new album Music From SteamWorld Heist II:
👉
Preorders include 4 exclusive buttons!
9 years after the band did music for the video game SteamWorld Heist, they're doing more music for SteamWorld Heist II!

I’ve seen a few comments on this figurine of “why does a steam powered giraffe have an electrical plug if it’s steam powered?”, and no it’s not a mistake, it fits into the band’s lore and is intentional (1/2)
TGGIF (Thank G.G. It’s Friday!) Now you can own your very own mini G.G. in collectible figurine form!

I wanna say something about all the bullshit and whatnot going on in the world, but I don’t know where to start. I am just like all of you & don’t enjoy the worst of what we get to see online, but we must not get complacent. These people might be a small percentage of the world…

Knowing the design of the Walter Robotics robots though…the plug probably DOESN’T charge some backup battery for GG, and most certainly DOES power and absurdly annoying and high power consuming siren only when it’s plugged in and serves no other purpose.

In our lore band has been around since 1896 & while the robots still use steam, this specific robot is a baby robot giraffe named GG and has a type A electric plug for a tail because the band exists in modern times despite still being steam powered. (2/2)

I am not really a gearhead and I don’t really salivate over guitars, but I bought a new guitar for me to play at Steam Powered Giraffe shows.
Godin Multiac Steel Doyle Dykes Signature Edition. Somehow I found a brand new one online.
It’s sort of like the Godin A6 Ultra

An old guy and his even older mother were in front of me about to fill out the form for COVID vax when I was getting new booster.
He said he “No wait mom, this is for Covid. We want flu shot. Don’t need any of that bullshit. They try to scare people half to death with that.”

We’ll film some shows in the future like we used to do. But for those of you hankering for the robots, WE WILL be having a Livestream Concert near the end of 2023 though! Stay tuned!

Q: I do not live close and can’t attend show. Will it be recorded to view later?
A: We are not recording this show as it’d be too much on our plate for our first show back (and a bit too much pressure for us to be filmed for same reason).

Once we get our local show setup down and we feel the time is right we will expand our setup to do shows we travel/fly out to and begin booking venues and events again. No ETA on that. We just need to get back into local theaters first.

I’ve played on stage for years, but it’s even more acousticy sounding.
At first glance it looks sort of the same, but it’s a bit bigger, and has a wider neck. Still has all the great electric-acoustic-like stuff, but has a lyric pickup instead of the humbucker.

Anywho, I won’t be picking masterfully like Doyle Dykes, but it’ll definitely give the show an extra hint of acoustic guitary sounds.

Finally you can all direct your booking inquiries to this page…we got a ton since the pandemic x_x. We’ll circle back with folks who inquired in 2023 already, but if you inquired earlier than that feel free to shoot us an email at that page if you’re still interested!
We’ve had a lot of people inquiring about booking the band recently and we are happy to announce that we’ve resumed bookings for 2025!
Check out our booking page that also includes a sample tech rider:
