On January 21, 1998, Umphrey's McGee played their first show for a handful of friends at Bridget McGuire's Filling Station in South Bend, IN. Over the last fifteen years, in rooms large and small, Umphrey's one constant has been YOU - the best fans in the world. Join us on the road throughout 2013, as UM celebrates "15 Years of Face Melting." UM Ticketing Pre-Sale begins today.Don't miss January 18th as UM returns to New York City for our first play at the storied Beacon Theater. Leg one of tour hugs the eastern seaboard (we thought you could use a hug right now), before circling back home to the Midwest. Despite blowing the roof off The Pageant last NYE, Umphrey's has been allowed back to St. Louis for a two-night Mardi Gras party in early February. Kick it up a notch and roll VIP.The 10th Annual Brendan and Jake Acoustic Holiday Show is just around the corner. This year's show benefits Snow City Arts to support their music and arts education for hospitalized children. Doors (and the bar) open early for the 3rd Annual UM Holiday Garage Sale as we empty the merch archives and donate a portion of proceeds to charity.
