Deer Tick

Known as a phenomenally rowdy live act who once averaged 250 shows a year, Deer Tick brings an infectious, anything-can-happen energy to every performance. Catch them live at Payomet in N. Truro on Saturday, August 22, for a night of music that is as spontaneous as it is electrifying.

Deer Tick is a Providence, Rhode Island rock band built on deep chemistry, a shared sense of humor, and an unrelenting love for the unpredictability of live music. Founded by singer-songwriter John J. McCauley in 2004, the band — rounded out by guitarist Ian O’Neil, bassist Christopher Ryan, and drummer Dennis Ryan — has spent two decades refusing to limit themselves, creating a sound that is raw, restless, and utterly their own.
