Umphrey's McGee
The Fillmore
Charlotte, NC
February 19, 2011
(Zach Deputy opener)
The recent warm weather visiting the Charlotte area was enhanced by the Saturday night performance at the Fillmore by Umphey McGee. Heating up the hall with funky and intricate jams, this eclectic band has been blazing a trail across the area. The past nine shows have all sold out, revealing the appeal and artistry of this formidable band. Here is a link to their web-site UMPHREYSMCGEE.COM
The evening performance kicked off with Zach Deputy who also joined Umphrey’s on stage for a killer encore song “Let’s Get It On”. Zach Deputy is a one man band within himself. If you have a chan
ce to catch his show, it be will worth your while. Here is a link to his web-site ZACHDEPUTY.COM
