The Chicago-based improg powerhouse makes their debut at Huntington’s Paramount Theater on Jan. 18.  Umphrey’s and Umphreaks alike rejoice when award-winning saxophonist Redman joins the sextet on stage, which he has done sporadically for the past decade.

2014 has been a huge year for UM, as they launched their own Nothing Too Fancy Music record label and their first album off N2F, Similar Skin. They close the year out with a historic 5-night run at Atlanta’s Tabernacle Theater from Dec. 30, 2014- Jan. 3, 2015, before opening up their first proper tour of 2015 in New York.

Pre-sale tickets go on sale Friday, Sept. 19, and tickets will be on sale to the public on Friday, Sept. 26.  More information can be found here.
