The band has now confirmed that the album with come out through ATO records, a label co-owned by Dave Matthews that is home to such artists as My Morning Jacket, John Butler Trio, Dawes and Drive-By Truckers.

Last night, Umphrey’s McGee headlined Utica, NY’s Saranac Brewery. Yonder Mountain String Band opened the show and both bands played single sets. For their encore, Umphrey’s McGee invited out all four members of Yonder Mountain to play on their own “Nashville Easter.” The members of both bands then performed Umphrey’s McGee’s “Partyin’ Peeps.”

Umphrey’s McGee will perform in Wallingford, CT tonight.
