On Sunday, Umphrey’s McGee wrapped the west coast leg of their 2019 winter tour. Following their guest-filled performance in Seattle on Saturday, Umphrey’s kept the party going with a concert at The Hive in Sandpoint, ID to close out the weekend on a strong note.
The prog-rock outfit started Sunday’s performance with “Triangle Tear”, a choral harmony-heavy tune from their 2018 surprise album, it’s you. The first half of the show kept rolling with a trio of nonstop songs starting with “Loose Ends”, and continuing into “Kabump” followed by an 18-minute performance of “Mail Package”. The band continued with “The Linear”, the opening track from their 2014 album, Similar Skin LP, before going right into “Upward”, the closing track from it’s you. The first half of the show came to a close following performances of “The Fuzz” into “Higgins”.

The band returned to the stage to open the second set with “40’s Theme”, before diving into a pair of lengthy jams including a 30-minute “Utopian Fir” and a 20-minute “Puppet String”. The second set continued with “Den”, followed by “Front Porch”. The show’s one-song encore featured Umphrey’s revisiting one of their go-to heavy psychedelic covers of The Beatles‘ “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)”.
