‘Dave Matthews Band’: All you need to know
Back in 1991, a crew of musicians from Charlottesville, Virginia, got together and started blending rock, jazz, folk, and world music into something totally their own. Led by Dave Matthews, the band took off fast. Over the years, they’ve scored hits like ‘Ants Marching,’ ‘What Would You Say,’ and, of course, ‘Crash Into Me.’ Their concerts are legendary—setlists change every night, and the band thrives on jamming and improvising. If you’re into music that keeps you guessing, you’ll love it. DMB pulls in everyone: jam-band fans, casual listeners, rock radio regulars. Three decades in, they’re still one of the top-selling live acts in America, no question.
