Dave Matthews Band

The live recording of "Ants Marching" at Piedmont Park on May 30, 2007, took place during a significant period for the Dave Matthews Band. By this time, the band had recently released their studio album "Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King" in 2009, which marked a return to form after a brief hiatus. The live album "Live at Piedmont Park," released in 2007, captures the high-energy performances that the band is known for and showcases their improvisational skills. This concert was particularly memorable, as it was free and celebrated the band's connection with its fans. An interesting fact about this performance is that it came after the tragic death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore, whose influence remained pivotal during this time, reflecting how the band honored his legacy in their music and performances. The Piedmont Park concert serves as a testament to their resilience and continued creativity in the face of personal loss.
