Dave Matthews Band

The iconic performance of "Satellite" recorded live at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on August 15, 1995, captures Dave Matthews Band at a pivotal moment in their career. Just a couple of years prior, they released their critically acclaimed album "Crash" in 1996, which helped catapult them into mainstream success. This live recording came out in 1997 as part of their album "Live at Red Rocks 8.15.95," showcasing their energetic stage presence and the raw emotion they deliver to fans. Known for their improvisational style, the band often experimented with arrangements during live shows, and this performance is no exception.
