Spafford launched their highly anticipated summer tour with an electrifying performance at Water Street Music Hall in Rochester, New York. This marks the first show with guitarist Mike Gantzer of Aqueous, sitting in for original member Brian Moss as he recovers from a car accident a few months ago.

The highlight of the evening was an unforgettable rendition of "Machine Elves", where Gantzer's dynamic guitar work seamlessly blended with Spafford's signature improvisational style. Fans were treated to a night of high-energy jams and captivating musical moments, setting the tone for what promises to be an incredible Summer tour.
