The members of Umphrey’s McGee met at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana and named themselves after a cousin of the band’s bassist, Brendan Bayliss. By 1997, the jam band was playing around campus and won a large fan base in South Bend.
Although the band began playing during the renaissance period of jam bands – think Big Wu and Phish – they differed in terms of discipline. Most of the band members were music majors at Notre Dame and studied their live performances diligently, always looking for ways to improve.
The band’s studious ways paid off when it released its first live album, Songs for Older Women, that did so well that the band sold out shows in Colorado before even touring there. Umphrey’s McGee live performances soon became compared to the likes of jam band legends The Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd.
Umphrey’s McGee has recorded over ten albums and released six DVDs, always gaining the most accolades for its live efforts. The band's live double album titled Live at the Murat, released in 2007, received a prestigious four-star review in Rolling Stone.
Make sure you buy your Umphrey’s McGee tickets today in order to see one of the best live jam bands music has to offer.
