Umphrey's McGee Concert: Performance of 'Front Porch/Waterfalls' at The Stone Pony

Venue: The Stone Pony Summer Stage Location: Asbury Park, New Jersey, United States Date: August 10, 2014

On August 10, 2014, when Umphrey's McGee performed at The Stone Pony, they were in the midst of a prolific period, having released their studio album "Similar Skin" just a month earlier, on July 1, 2014. This album marked a significant moment in their career, as it featured a more defined sound and showcased their songwriting evolution. Notably, "Similar Skin" was their first album to be primarily produced without the involvement of a major label, reflecting their indie approach and commitment to artistic freedom. The live performance at The Stone Pony captures the band's dynamic improvisational style, a hallmark of their reputation in the jam band scene. The setlist for that night included "Front Porch" and "Waterfalls," two songs that exemplify their blend of rock, jazz, and progressive influences, solidifying their status as versatile performers in live settings.
