Umphrey’s McGee NYE 2016 – Back In Chicago Baby

Posted on by

Umphrey's McGee - NYE 2016

From Umphrey’s McGee

“Umphrey’s McGee triumphantly returns to Chicago for a three-night home-town throwdown New Year’s Eve celebration. We take the stage at the Riviera Theatre on December 29th and the Aragon Ballroom on December 30th and 31st. Ring in the new year in our beloved city, as we raise the bar with a three night, seven-set musical journey fitting of our first NYE Chicago run since 2010!

You heard it here first — umVIP is THE way to roll on NYE, and holy @#$%, are we excited to tell you all about it. Preferred viewing and early entry will be honored at both venues, as well as a private step and repeat photo-op with the band on 12/30, alongside an open bar and joyous mariachi tunes in the Aragon lobby. Yes, you read that right. Enjoy a set-break pizza party on 12/31, three posters by Chicago artists Land Land, Justin Santora and Baker Prints, a custom umVIP speaker and so much more. For our out of town guests, we have secured a room block at the marvelously appointed Dana Hotel in downtown Chicago with transportation to and from both venues each night via the famed Chicago Trolleys. Full umVIP weekend details here.

Umphrey’s Pre-Sale will offer a limited amount of discounted three-show tickets for $149.00. These passes will be made available exclusively through UMTicketing; single show tickets will be available starting with the public on-sale. Pre-sale and umVIP on-sale begins Saturday September 10th at 10:00 am CT. Public on-sale begins Saturday September 17th at 10:00 am CT.

We look forward to rocking the Windy City with you in December!”

Announcing Trey Anastasio Band 2014 Fall Tour Dates

Posted on by

TAB - Fall Tour 2014
From Trey.com
“Trey Anastasio Band’s new album, Paper Wheels, isn’t due out until early 2015, but the group will be previewing some of the new songs during its 2014 Fall Tour. The run will kick off on November 28 (the day after Thanksgiving) at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago and include two-night stands at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, the Orpheum Theatre in Boston and New York City’s Beacon Theatre.

Fans can listen to (and download for free) “Bounce,” a song from Paper Wheels, at Trey.com. While much preparation went into Paper Wheels in terms of demos and rehearsals with TAB, the album was recorded in less than a week at The Barn, Anastasio’s reconstructed barn-turned-rehearsal/recording studio located outside Burlington, Vermont. Inspired by the immediacy of Stax-era recordings, Anastasio and his band mates recorded the songs live, playing and singing together in one room and often requiring no more than one or two takes.

Paper Wheels was produced and engineered by Bryce Goggin, who helmed several Phish albums and has also partnered with Anastasio on previous solo projects, and mixed by Elliot Scheiner (Steely Dan, Van Morrison).”
