Umphrey's McGee - Performance of '1348' at Gathering of the Vibes Festival
In August 2014, when Umphrey's McGee performed "1348" at the Gathering of the Vibes Music Festival, they were riding high on the momentum of their most recent studio album, "Similar Skin," which had been released just a month earlier, on July 1, 2014. This album marked their first significant release after joining a new management team and represents a notable evolution in their sound, showcasing their signature blend of rock, jazz, and progressive elements. Additionally, the festival performance occurred during a period of increased visibility for the band, as they were carving a niche within the jam band scene. Notably, "1348" has become a staple in their live sets, often featuring intricate improvisation that highlights their musicianship and chemistry as a band, making their performances at festivals like Gathering of the Vibes particularly special for fans.
