Fox Theatre, The |
Boulder |
CO | Jazzy interlude mixes with Wayless, albeit briefly, at 5 min. Patient ascending jam unfolds after 7 min. Subtle tingly synths from Dani embody the band’s chill confidence after 8 min. Mike’s gurgling bass after 9 min gives the jam heft, but we’re in no hurry. Jake leans into peaky-adjacent play after 11 min before they hit the chorus to wrap this tidy jam around 12 min. |

Levon Helm Studios |
Woodstock |
NY | Stretches in place with a repeating easy-going bluesy lick from Jake at 6 min. Builds around that theme and the sound fills out, e.g. 9 min with Tru-Tron tones and more active drums; piano support adds levity. Gets growly at 10 min, with organ swells. Froths to a brief peak after 11 min before return to Wayless. |

Virginian Lodge, The |
Jackson |
WY | Works in delicate space at 6 min. Fills out at 8 min via Jake runs, synth washes, & active rhythm section. Darker, experimental crunch develops 10-11 min, then sprawls, guided by a measured, descending Jake melody that rings out, e.g. 13-14 min. Rhythmic, upbeat play emerges by 16 min. Turns focused after 18 min with a bouncy, tight, forward-leaning piano groove. Clav yanks band's rhythm at 20 min, & a near-drum solo with organ pivots jam to new, driving space from 21-22 min. |

Cornerstone |
Berkeley |
CA | This band is a four-headed monster. Delicate Jake and Dani interplay at 5 min. Patient and gorgeous and on a wire at 7 min. Strongly anchored by Mike, e.g. 8 min, and grows peaky with sheets of sounds from 10-12 min. Chaotically tips over to a peak around 13-14 min before vocal return at 15 min. |

State Room, The |
Salt Lake City |
UT | Synth-soaked bass drives a head-bobbing, heavy groove after 6 min. Jake's searing tone has gravity, e.g. 7 min. Measured sizzle around 10 min. Crunchy play gives way to distorted guitar harmonics at 11-12 min, then piano and bass push ever-so-slightly. Band gloms on, leading to peaky terrain. A collaborative riff around 13-14 min galvanizes. Whammy haze clears new space at 15 min with rolling drums before Jake pushes the gas and Mike and Alex happily join the fray for Coming Up segue. |

Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park |
Live Oak |
FL | Minor key, hazy, ascending passage 4-6 min. Peaky, measured guitar with driving drums and bass 8-10 min, then quieter. Piano buoys the proceedings while Alex adds agile accents as they work back up to Wayless after 12 min. |

Lincoln Theatre |
Raleigh |
NC | A guitar-led dark and brooding march after 5 min. Evil Eggy is always welcome! Dani synths add welcome discomfort with aplomb after 6 min. Lead lines sing out from Jake around 8 min. Occasional pauses catch the crowd off-guard, but the band quickly lays back into their punishing soundtrack. Frothy, head-banging play, e.g. 9 min, steps through a secret door back into the Wayless chorus at 10 min. Wow! |
