This guy gets it: Umphrey’s McGee is one of those bands you just can’t get enough of, which is probably why they’ve been around for the better part of two decades. It is also why they’ve created a cult base of fans that seem more like a giant family and are expanding into bigger territory out of the often pigeonholing jam-band genre . This family of fans feeds off of the nectar of six great musicians, who have cultivated their craft and play tirelessly for the enjoyment of the fan. This love of music is more than apparent any time you go to an Umphrey’s show and watch these craftsmen toil with their tools to create something incendiary and simultaneously comfortable. Their kinetic music sweeps through crowds of packed amphitheaters and allows fans to grasp to sizzling guitar riffs accompanied by rhythmic bass, percussion and piano to create something that truly embodies rock and roll.
