A collaboration back in 2008

Back in 2001 at the High Sierra Music Festival, one of the guitar workshops featured Tea Leaf Green’s Josh Clark, along with the Breakfast’s Tim Palmieri, Umphrey’s McGee’s Jake Cinninger and Particle’s Charlie Hitchcock. The participants have remained friendly over the years and last night, Clark and TLG made their way to Palmieri’s native Connecticut for a gig at Toad’s Place in New Haven. During the second set, Palmieri stepped out to trade licks with Clark during “Devil Hound” and “Hot Dog.” Palmieri was the second member of the Breakfast to join the action as drummer Adrian Tramontano appeared with the group for its entire set, mostly on congas, although he slid behind a kit during “Hot Dog” for a drum solo.
