Umphrey's McGee - BeSides (2018)

As fall slowly turns to winter, we reflect on all that has unfolded in our 20th year. With the drop of it’s not us to begin 2018, followed by it’s not them (the remix EP), and the surprise release of it’s you mid year, one could reasonably discern the narrative is complete. That said, it seemed only appropriate to us that we would deliver one final chapter in the it’s not us, it’s you story to tie 2018 up with a tidy bow.
Today, we present the BeSides album, a sprawling collection of live renditions, bonus tracks, original demos, alternate arrangements, and evolutionary versions. Listen to the early iterations that came before the records and see how they’ve evolved on stage over time. It’s a variable Swiss Army knife for the UM fan.
