The String Cheese Incident made a stop at Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe, PA on Thursday night in the midst of their tour with Willie Nelson and his Outlaw Music Festival.  The venue was packed to the gills when showtime hit at 7:30 and the crowd was treated to an evening of SCI songs new and old, full of their signature blend of concise songwriting and exploratory instrumentals that kept the people dancing from the first beat to the very last.  There is someth

To close out 2022, The String Cheese Incident decided to play it close to home and ring in the new year at Denver’s musical gem, the intimate Mission Ballroom. Topping out at 4,000 heads, getting to see SCI in such a small venue for three consecutive nights and so close to their own front doors meant that the band and extended community were in for a sold-out homecoming of sorts filled with familiar faces from both sides of the stage.

The ever-changing Everyone Orchestra and its ringleader Matt Butler is a carnival collective of musicians juggling their instrumental talents in an all-out improvised landscape.

Multi-instrumentalist Michael Travis is no stranger to taking music to new places. As one of the core founders of The String Cheese Incident, Michael and the gang have morphed from a primarily bluegrass-based ensemble to an ever-shifting, genre-bending circus of sound that continues to grow. Additionally, his electronic group EOTO (w/ Jason Hann), which began as a liquid downtempo duo, has grown into a force to be reckoned with in the electronic realm.

There are so many good reasons why I am about to talk up this year’s 9^th Annual Sonic Bloom Festival, which took place in a new location called the American Safari Ranch in South Park, CO during the summer solstice.

EOTO will kick off their 20 night winter tour on November 6th in Jacksonville, FL including stops throughout the South and Midwest before embarking on their first mini-Colorado mountain tour in nearly 3 years.  A feast for the sense, the dynamic duo is celebrated for their unconventional approa

The Werk Out Music and Arts Festival was a great way to close my festival season. Held September 12-14^th at Legend Valley in Thornville, Ohio, this festival was full of some the midwest’s favorite musicians and artists. It was an absolutely beautiful weekend to spend outside, although it was a bit chilly at night, the sun was out all weekend.

Few musicians in today’s world are as multi-talented and stand out quite like Michael Travis and Jason Hann. From their roots of The String Cheese Incident to countless side projects and guest appearances, these two drummers and friends are pushing the boundaries of what it means to be true musicians.
