Umphrey's Mcgee at the Fillmore in Philadelphia 2/13/26
by Chris Paul - published 2026-02-17
On August 15, 2025, Umphrey's Mcgee announced that Scotty Zwang was officially joining the band. His addition was to replace long-time drummer Kris Myers. Ironically the last time I saw UM was in August 2023 at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. A large portion of this tour would be without Kris because of shoulder surgery. During his hiatus, UM would feature a rotation of drummers including Scotty Zwang. Umphreys was founded in 1997 and during their 30+ years change is inevitable. The arrival of Scotty to the band brought new life and on February 13, 2026, I witnessed this metamorphosis at the Fillmore in Philadelphia, PA.
