Over the weekend, Umphrey’s McGee treated Brooklyn, NY’s Brooklyn Steel to a three-night run of high-octane performances as part of their ongoing Wax On, Wax Off tour.
On Friday, as a special treat for NYC fans, Umphrey’s revived the horn-enhanced version of their cover of INXS‘s “What You Need”, which was originally debuted on New Year’s Eve at The Tabernacle in Atlanta, Georgia. For the set-closing cover, Umphrey’s welcomed out trumpeter Mike “Maz” Maher (Snarky Puppy), trombonist Chris Ott (Huntertones), and saxophonist Dan White (Huntertones). The horn section returned in the second set for versions of Little Feat‘s “Fat Man In The Bathtub”, which was also debuted on NYE, and their own “Bad Friday”.
Umphrey’s McGee has now shared pro-shot video of their horn-heavy Brooklyn take on “Bad Friday”, which you can watch below:
