Umphrey’s continued what’s becoming an annual tradition by mashing up some of their originals and their favorite covers in innovative ways at the Dance of the Dead IV festival in Las Tortugas – Groveland, CA. Besides mashing up such tunes as Kenny Rogers’ The Gambler with The Bee Gees’ Night Fever and The Sugarhill Gang’s Rapper’s Delight, the band also welcomed Bill Kreutzmann of The Dead to sit in on Professor Wormbog.

We can’t wait for video and audio to surface.
