The String Cheese Incident

In July 2010, The String Cheese Incident was riding high on the wave of their musical journey, having recently released their album, "Song in My Head," in 2014. However, this live recording at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre showcases the band's dynamic stage presence just amidst their transition into a more independent phase following a brief hiatus. It's interesting to note that this performance comes at a time when they were firmly establishing their blend of bluegrass, rock, and improvisational jamming as a hallmark of their sound. Live recordings like this one, especially at such a storied venue, highlight the band’s remarkable chemistry and ability to connect with their audience. Plus, Red Rocks, with its breathtaking natural acoustics and stunning backdrop, has become somewhat of a musical pilgrimage site for artists and fans alike, making this performance a memorable chapter in their evolution.
