Umphrey’s McGee drummer Kris Myers held his guest-filled Slay Ride event on Sunday night at Brooklyn Bowl Nashville. Billed as a “String The Halls weekend ending celebration,” the show went on despite Billy Strings canceling his annual String The Halls benefit performances due to a positive COVID-19 test in his touring party.
Kris Myers’ Slay Ride consisted of three sets with over two dozen special guests. Myers kept a steady stream of all-star musicians circling in and out throughout the evening, including Maggie Rose, Cory Wong, Bill Evans, Jeff Coffin, Kevin Scott, Guthrie Trapp, Taylor Hicks, Ty Bailie, Emmanuel Echem, Katie Pruitt, Zöe Nutt, Daru Jones, Kurt Ozan, Petar Janjic, Johnson Jay, Vijay Tellis-Nayak, Chris Siebold, Chris Clemente, Jay White, Marcus White, Elliot Blaufuss, Brian Cornish, Matt Menefee, Billy Contrares, and Marshall Carlson.
