Dave Matthews Band Welcome Guest Fiddlers, Pearl Jam Guitarist at The Gorge

Dave Matthews Band closed their summer tour with their annual Labor Day run at George, WA’s The Gorge. After performing their 2009 release Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King in its entirety and welcoming opener Stephen Wilson Jr. to the stage Friday, the surprises continued on Saturday.

First, Tatiana Hargreaves, one of several fiddlers who has sat in with Dave Matthews Band this summer, emerged for “Satellite” and “Grace is Gone.” Then, Pearl Jam guitarist and Seattle music hero Mike McCready took the stage with Dave Matthews Band for the first time since 2022 for Led Zeppelin’s “Fool in the Rain,” and Casey Driessen, another fiddler who has sat in with DMB this year, appeared on “Pig” and “Lie in Our Graves.” Just as surprising, Driessen remained on stage while Hargreaves returned for some double-fiddle action on a set-closing “Ants Marching” as well as an encore of Bob Dylan’s “Oh, Sister,” which hadn’t been played by the full Dave Matthews Band since June 3, 2015.

For the tour-closing gig on Sunday, Dave Matthews Band invited Jesse Welles and Sierra Hull to supply support duties. Welles returned to the stage during the headliner’s set eight songs in for a memorable cover of Daniel Lanois’ “The Maker,” while Hull appeared a bit later on the country classic “Long Black Veil,” “Spoon” and an extended “The Last Stop.” Driessen also dropped in on “Spoon” and Hargreaves took the stage soon after for “Cry Freedom.” Then both players helped the band out on the violin showcase “Tripping Billies.”

Kings of Leon Reveal New Album Details, Intimate Nashville Date

Kings of Leon will release their 10th full-length studio album, O My Beloved, on November 6 via Love Tap Records, distributed by Virgin Music. The ensemble self-produced the record for the first time, stripping things back from the expansive sound that has defined much of their career and returning to the raw spirit of their early days on the festival scene.

“We have already surpassed anything we ever imagined we could do, and we’ve built something that is so special. I thought, wouldn’t it be beautiful to make an album that is looking back on all of the things that we’ve done and appreciating how we got here,” lead singer Caleb Followill said in a statement of the new music, which reflects on their personal journeys. “In the songs, there’s our families, stories from our childhood, things that maybe didn’t seem that significant at the time, but the way they find their way into these songs kind of lets me realize how impactful they really were in my life.”

Alongside the album announcement, Kings of Leon have released “My Whole World,” the first single from O My Beloved. The song “emerged from a deeply personal place, with long-held memories and emotions finding their way into the music.” The result “is an emotionally charged introduction to the album and a glimpse into the more vulnerable side of Kings of Leon captured throughout the record.”  The Follow brothers lost their mother in 2021; their last record, Can We Please Have Fun, arrived in 2024.

To celebrate the announcement of O My Beloved, Kings of Leon will perform a special show this evening at the Basement East in Nashville. The intimate performance is intended to bring “the band back to the kind of club setting they played in as teenagers while working to make their mark in Music City, making it a fitting way to kick off this next chapter.”  The band will likely debut a slew of new songs during the show.

O My Beloved Track List:

The Bogmen, Vapors of Morphine to Play Special Show on the 25th Anniversary of 9/11

The Bogmen will perform a special show at New York’s Webster Hall tomorrow, September 11, to honor the memories of those who lost their lives on 9/11. The evening, which marks the 25th anniversary of the horrific terrorist attack, will also feature Vapors of Morphine, a project led by Morphine co-founder and saxophonist Dana Colley. Morphine were one of The Bogmen’s longtime favorite bands.

A statement from the band about the show explains:

Having built a devoted following throughout the 1990s among New York City’s first responders and Wall Street community, The Bogmen lost countless fans, friends and family members in the September 11 attacks. At the heart of this return is the memory of Kristy Irvine-Ryan, wife of band member Brendan Ryan, whose life and legacy remain deeply woven into the band’s history. A vibrant member of the New York City community, Kristy perished in the South Tower on September 11, 2001, at the age of 30. The band’s annual tribute performances are the subject of Chris Cassidy’s documentary, We Will Go To Them Tonight, and continue to shape the meaning and purpose behind each reunion.

The Avett Brothers Confirm New Year’s Eve Show with Mountain Grass Unit and Homeboy Sandman

The Avett Brothers have confirmed their New Year’s plans. The Concord, NC-bred group will ring in 2027 at Asheville, NC’s ExploreAsheville.com Arena on December 31, capping off a busy year that saw the group launch its side-project with Mike Patton, AVTT/PTTN. Mountain Grass Unit and Homeboy Sandman will open the show.

The ensemble has a long, rich history with Asheville and they have performed at the mountain town’s arena on New Year’s Eve several different times, including last year. They first headlined the famed venue in 2009, when the Avetst moved their New Year’s Eve show from the smaller Thomas Wolfe Auditorium up to the Asheville Civic Center to accommodate more fans as their popularity surged following the release of I and Love and You.

The Avett Brothers will perform next at New Haven, CT’s Westville Music Bowl on September 17. Guster will open the night. Meanwhile, Mountain Grass Unit will appear at New Orleans’ Tipitina’s tonight and Homeboy Sandman will perform at Troy, NY’s No Fun on November 6.

Jorma Kaukonen & Friends to Celebrate 60 Years of The Fillmore

Jorma Kaukonen will return to San Francisco to celebrate The Fillmore’s 60th anniversary in December. Billed as three “very special evenings with Jorma Kaukonen & Friends,” the concerts will take place December 11-13.

The famed venue was built in 1912 and originally opened as Majestic Hall. Though it became the Fillmore Auditorium in 1954, operated by prominent entrepreneur Charles Sullivan, it grew into the venue it would became known as when Sullivan let Bill Graham use his dance hall permit to book a benefit for the San Francisco Mime Troupe in December 1965.

Kaukonen has been a key part of the venue’s history, even appearing as Graham’s first Mime Troupe benefit a few weeks before his inaugural Fillmore gig as a member of Jefferson Airplane. The guitarist also recently announced that he would retire from touring, instead focusing on residencies and select appearances. For more on his future plans, be sure to read our recent digital cover story.

The String Cheese Incident Issue “Fête-Tama”

The String Cheese Incident have issued a new single, “Fête-Tama.” The drop arrives after the Colorado-bred act released another studio track, “Lightning Sky,” earlier this summer. “Fête-Tama” is described as “an instrumental, dance-floor-ready, electronic fusion of Afro-inspired percussion and heavy funk melodies, taking listeners on a 6-minute musical journey.”  The ensemble first played the cut live at Houston, TX’s House of Blues on May 30.

“‘Fête-Tama’ was inspired by some of the world music I’ve been listening to recently,” keyboardist Kyle Hollingsworth said in a statement. “I knew I wanted to have a dance-oriented song in the style of some of our other electronic fiddle tunes. I wrote the melody on keys and brought it to the band, and we flushed it out together. ‘Fête’ meaning ‘party’ or ‘festival’ in French, and ‘Tama’ referencing a type of African drum. I wanted to showcase Jason [Hann]’s percussion expertise. But in the end, it became a fun dance track that gets everyone grooving.” 

SCI have been working on new music in their studio The Lab and have already debuted a handful of new tunes this year. Their Just Keep Spinning Tour picks up this weekend with a two-night run in Vail, CO’s Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater.
