Mid-July, The String Cheese Incident made their institutional return to their home base in Colorado and played back-to-back solid shows to capacity crowds at the world-famous Red Rocks Amphitheatre. This year marked their 19th year to perform at the location many refer to as ‘the best venue on earth,’ delivering their forty-eighth and forty-ninth gigs respectively since their first performance in the sound sanctuary in 2000.

Tedeschi Trucks Band is as much a musical movement as they are a band. They are a large group of gifted musicians that travel around the country together as a family, bandmates and friends. The dozen musicians who make up this powerful force of musical joy are all well-seasoned road warriors. They spend countless hours and miles on the road, chasing the moonlight through the windshields of their homes on wheels to arrive at their next gig. With so many band members come many musical influences and musical ideas.
