Indigo Girls
"Rites of Passage"

Released in 1992

Indigo Girls are a folk rock duo (Amy Ray and Emily Saliers) from Atlanta, Georgia that formed in 1985. I was really impressed by this album. It was their third straight great release. That's not easy to do. And with "Galileo" they have one of the best songs in their catalog. They were one of my favorites during my college years.

Umphrey's Mcgee at the Fillmore in Philadelphia 2/13/26

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.
