Last night, Spafford brought their electrifying energy to the Nashua Center for the Arts, kicking off their fall tour with a show that will be remembered for years to come. The performance marked the triumphant return of guitarist Brian Moss, who rejoined the band after a hiatus, seamlessly reclaiming his place in the band and hitting the ground running.
The night also featured the debut of fill-in bassist Shon Gordon, playing his first show with the band. Gordon’s style was dynamic and the chemistry with the group was undeniable, as the band sounded like they had been playing together for years.
A standout moment of the night was the mind-bending sequence of "Electric Taco Stand > Dis Go in 5 > Electric Taco Stand," where the band showcased their signature improvisational prowess, taking the audience on a thrilling musical journey. The band entered a pocket of jamming that enveloped the room in pure energy as Spafford delivered a set full of twists, turns, and pure jam band magic.
