Umphrey's McGee will play an entire set of improvisational music with Joshua Redman

Umphrey's McGee added another show where they will play an entire set of improvisational music with Joshua Redman. 
 
        Umphrey's McGee will play on January 27th with saxophone prodigy Joshua Redman and will perform an entire set together without a net. The "From the hip" show will take place at the State Theatre in Portland, Me. Almost a year ago exactly to the upcoming date U.M. played an entire set without a setlist or anything planned out ahead of time, also with Joshua Redman to great ends. The show was a huge success and they repeated the no script formula for a quarter of UMBOWL 2016 and it was well received. We need more of true improvisation in music today.
