Umphrey's McGee has been around since 1997 and have gained a large following over the past decade. Starting out as a cover band, they quickly found their sound. One of the band's percussionists, Andy Farag, joined the band in 1998 and his father became the band's manager. By 200 they were one of the most popular bands in the Notre Dame/Chicago area.
By 2002 they were being asked to play the Bonnaroo Music Festival. A few members of the band have even released solo albums. Umphrey's McGee has a very dedicated live show following. People who love to go to Phish shows love to go to Umphrey's McGee shows. The thing about Umphrey's McGee is that they love to tour a lot more than Trey and the boys.
