The String Cheese Incident Confirm Fall Tour, Halloween Run at The Cap

The String Cheese Incident have confirmed another leg of their Just Keep Spinning Tour, which will keep the veteran Colorado act on the road into December. After their annual Huluween festival, which will return to Live Oak, FL from October 23-25, String Cheese will hit the road for a series of headlining dates, beginning at Red Bank, NJ’s Count Basie Center For The Arts on October 28, before winding through the Midwest and California. Of note, along the way, SCI will return to Port Chester, NY’s Capitol Theatre for Halloween weekend shows on October 30 and 31, and stage multi-night runs at Oakland, CA’s Fox Theater on December 4 and 5 and Del Mar, CA’s The Sound on December 10 and 11. For their fall tour, The String Cheese Incident will welcome nonprofits HeadCount and Concerted, which offers fans an opportunity to volunteer on local community service projects in exchange for a ticket to designated concerts, at each stop.   

The ensemble has already debuted a handful of new originals this year as they work toward their next studio project in The Lab. Their summer tour will resume with a stop at Cleveland Heights, OH’s Cain Park Evans Amphitheater on August 11.

Looking ahead, String Cheese will head to Africa for the first time as part of The Moroccan Incident, which touches down in Marrakech, Morocco, from September 24-26. Hinting at things to come, they have also announced their first 2027 stop, a show at Greenville, SC’s Peace Center Concert Hall on January 21.

Guster Welcome Brad Barr and Bebe Stockwell, Perform ‘Ganging Up on the Sun’ In Its Entirety

Guster hosted their annual On the Ocean event in Portland, ME, this past weekend. The festivities kicked off at the ornate Merrill Auditorium on Friday, with Guster performing alongside the Portland Symphony Orchestra. At one point, before busting into the always charged “The Elevator,” which discusses the impactful point in a person’s life when they are taking care of both their aging parents and children, frontman Ryan Miller got emotional while admitting that he dropped off his oldest child at college that very morning. The band also ended the show, as they often do, by performing a stripped-down version of “Jesus on the Radio,” with members of the symphony joining them for the banjo-enhanced tune.

On Saturday, the festivities moved over to Portland, ME’s Thompson's Point, with Iron & Wine, The Barr Brothers, Bebe Stockwell and Cilla Bonnie supplying support duties. In addition, touring Guster drummer/keyboardist Dave Butler put together one of the “and friends” shows he often stages during his Monday night residency at Hopewell, NJ’s Hopewell Fare, with the members of Guster sitting in with him at various points during the segment.  

During their headlining spot, Guster offered a career-spanning set, with Miller adlibbing a song about their recent trip to Alaska; the group performed in the state for the first time in July, making them the rare act to have played all 50 states. Adding to the theatrics, on Saturday, Miller crowd-surfed into the audience to sing while on a pool floaty. Besides key tracks from each of their nine albums, Guster also offered “Lost at Sea,” a B-side off 2010’s Easy Wonderful that they only debuted in 2024, and the rarely performed 1996 Goldfly tune “Great Escape,” which they revived earlier this year for the first time since 2023. Stockwell and The Barr Brothers guitarist Brad Barr also joined Guster on stage for a tender take on Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon,” which the evening’s hosts hadn’t covered in two years. Though Barr’s group The Slip came off age in the same Wetlands scene as Guster in the ’90s, and they share many musical acquaintances, last night was the first time the two acts collaborated in a former setting.

The Revivalists Make MSG Debut with Red Clay Strays  

New Orleans’ The Revivalists made their Madison Square Garden debut on Sunday night, supporting Mobile, AL country-rock/Southern rock act the Red Clay Strays. For their first show at the famed New York arena, The Revivalists mixed material from throughout their career, drawing from five of their six LPs, including two tracks from Get It Honest, which was released on July 24. They also snuck in a cover of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ “American Girl,” which they debuted last year and have performed regularly throughout 2026.

Sunday’s show was Red Clay Strays’ first MSG play as well and the rising group documented the event for an upcoming live record and accompanying film. A few songs into their set, they also brought out fellow country star, the Sunnyside, WA-bred Zach Top, who had a day off in the area, for “Don't Wanna Know,” a cut off their new album Grateful.

During their encore, and at their producer’s request, Red Clay Strays decided to do a second stab at their opening number, the Grateful kick-off track “Demons in Your Choir,” and “Don’t Wanna Know,” bringing Zach Top back to the stage for a second appearance. The musician then stuck around to assist Red Clay Strays on Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make It Through the Night,” a song the group has covered one previous known time at Fort Worth, TX’s Billy Bob’s in 2024.

Reprise Recreate Phish’s 1998 “Terrapin Station” Show, Add Northeast Dates

Reprise, the Phish tribute act that recreates classic Phish shows in their entirety, will hit the road later this month for a series of Northeast dates. The quartet, which brings together guitarist Cal Kehoe (Pink Talking Fish), drummer Adrian Tramontano (Twiddle, Kung Fu, The Breakfast), keyboardist Scott Chasolen (Ulu, The Machine) and bassist Chris DeAngelis (The Machine, Kung Fu, The Breakfast), recently wrapped up a series of shows at Virginia Beach, VA’s Elevation 27 on Sunday, August 2, where they performed Phish’s classic August 9, 1998, show in its entirety. (That famed ’90s concert, which fell on the year of the third anniversary of Jerry Garcia’s passing, included Phish’s only version of Grateful Dead’s “Terrapin Station,” marking the first time the Vermont Quartet had covered the Dead live since the 1980s.)

The ensemble’s upcoming summer shows will all take place in Phish’s ancestorial home of New England, likely revisiting another round of seminal shows from the region. Those dates include a two-night run at Portland, ME’s Portland House of Music (8/27-28), a stop at Waterbury, VT’s Jam for the Parks (8/29) and an appearance at Brattleboro, VT’s Stone Church (8/30).

Looking ahead, Reprise have also announced a series of September and October dates. The newly announced stops include: Lititz, PA’s Mickey’s Black Box (9/10), Hartford, CT’s Infinity Hall (9/11), Pawtucket, RI’s The Met (9/12), Morristown, NJ’s Homestead (10/15), Pembroke, MA’s Soundcheck Studios (10/16) and Albany, NY’s Lark Hall (10/17). While Phish have performed near all the markers on the upcoming run, it is worth nothing that the group keeps their equipment in Lititz, PA and have used the space for rehearsals, livestreaming a full show from the space on December 31, 2021, after their Madison Square Garden play was postponed due to COVID.

Randall Bramblett Will Return to the Road with Steve Winwood

Randall Bramblett will join Steve Winwood’s band on his upcoming September run. As previously reported, Winwood is slated to kick off a series of shows with John Fogerty in Tinley Park, IL, on September 3, moving throughout the East Coast before bringing things to a close in Hollywood, FL on September 20. This marks the first time the Athens, GA-based Bramblett has toured as part of Winwood’s band since 2004. On the upcoming outing, the multi-instrument will switch between his trademark instruments—keyboards, flute and saxophone.

Bramblett has a long history with Winwood. He previously spent 16 years in Winwood’s backing band, including a 1994 Traffic reunion tour that crossed paths with the Grateful Dead. During the past 22 years, Bramblett has mostly concentrated on his solo career, releasing nine additional solo albums, though he has also steadily collaborated with Bettye LaVette. His most recent set, Paradise Breakdown, arrived in 2024.

In a statement he said, “It’s been many years since I played with Steve and I was happy to get the call. He’s always been a hero of mine for his singing, tasty organ and piano playing (and for being a fine human being). Time to get on the bus and roll!”

Then, on Saturday, September 26, the party will move over to The Refinery for a big final day.
