Umphrey’s McGee NYE 2016 – Back In Chicago Baby

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!”

Papadosio Fall Tour 2016 “Pattern Integrities”

Papadosio - Pattern Integrities 2016

From Papadosio

“Papadosio have announced the release of their new EP, Pattern Integrities Vol. I due out September 21st, 2016, and phase one of the Pattern Integrities tour, kicking off with three nights headlining the Resonance Music Festival in Thornville, OH and concluding with two shows at Brooklyn’s iconic Brooklyn Bowl.
The Pattern Integrities tour introduces a new concept from Papadosio: The Pattern Integrity, or “P.I”, set. The P.I. set is in tribute to the great mind of Buckminster Fuller, and features live looping, sequencing, sampling, improvisation, and synthesis. The P.I. set is an effort to do something original, not just with the music itself, but the way in which it is performed. Fans can get a sneak peak of the P.I. set in the just released EP teaser video here.

Papadosio will dedicate the first night to the P.I. set in cities with two shows; and the first set in cities with one show. Papadosio presale for non-festival shows starts Thursday, July 28th. Local on-sales begin on Friday, July 29th.”
