I’m Gregg Davis (@gregg_tweets on X) and I’m doing many Umphrey’s McGee listening projects. Listen with me as I review and post about shows that happened in the past, compile stats about stews and jams that influenced or created new songs, analyses of odd-meter rhythms of Umphrey’s McGee songs, among other things.
There are so many improv jams, debuts, and incredible moments to reveal! Subscribe for an email when I post new shows. Sometimes I publish a YouTube video with the show audio and video of me doing something fun like flying a glider, mountain biking, or skateboarding.
Thanks to Kevin Browning, UM’s original sound caresser, all the audio is available as soundboard + audience recordings at archive.org, Live Music Archive app (iOS) and Taper’s Section app (Android). I also recommend subscribing to Nugs.net and their app to get soundboard recordings and streaming of (almost) all shows since 2004. Enjoy!
