Spafford Performs Backdoor Funk Live at Firefly 2013
Before the release of "Live At Firefly 2013," Spafford was steadily building a reputation in the jam band scene, having released their self-titled EP in 2012. This live album captures the band's energy and progressive sound during a pivotal time in their career, showcasing their improvisational skills and tight musicianship. The recording on November 11, 2013, at the Firefly Festival heralded an enthusiastic phase for Spafford, as they were becoming known for high-energy performances that seamlessly blend funk, rock, and jazz. Interestingly, the band often features extended jams in their setlists, which allows fans to immerse themselves in a unique musical experience. Released a year later in 2014, "Live At Firefly 2013" serves not just as a documentation of that moment, but also as a significant stepping stone in their journey to reach a wider audience.
