Umphrey’s McGee guitarists Brendan Bayliss and Jake Cinninger have confirmed their 9th Annual Acoustic Holiday Show. This year’s event will take place on Saturday, December 10th at an as yet unannounced Illinois venue (last year it was Chicago’s Park West). The 2010 installment saw the pair offer a variety of holiday classics (including “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” to John Lennon’s “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)”), cover tunes (The Pogues’ “Dirty Old Town,” Bob Marley’s “Mellow Mood,” CSNY’s “Teach Your Children”) and rearranged Umphrey’s originals (“Nothing Too Fancy,” “In the Kitchen”). In addition the duo moved beyond their guitars as Cinninger played both piano and bass while Bayliss appeared on mandolin, bass and piano.
