Dave Matthews Band

Singer-songwriter Dave Matthews, drummer Carter Beauford, bassist Stefan Lessard, guitarist Tim Reynolds, trumpeter Rashawn Ross, saxophonist and University of North Texas alum Jeff Coffin and pianist Buddy Strong make up the legendary Dave Matthews Band. The band returns to North Texas for what seems like its annual summer show at Dos Equis Pavilion touring in support of its 10th studio album, Walk Around the Moon, which will be released the day before the Saturday evening show. Dave Matthews Band is known for playing sprawling, three-hour sets filled with deep cuts and extended versions of its songs. Though some may be put off by this practice, it ultimately serves to showcase the massive talent each of the band’s members have beyond DMB’s radio hits. And it’s for this reason that you don’t actually have to be a fan of Dave Matthews Band’s songs to be a fan of Dave Matthews Band’s shows. David Fletcher
