TAMPA - The Dave Matthews Band is making a stop at the Ford Amphitheatre on Wednesday, July 9, 7 p.m.
According to Rolling Stone Magazine: “Summer means two things in America: It’s hot, and the Dave Matthews Band are on tour.” And this year is no exception.
Dave Matthews Band – comprised of Carter Beauford (drums), Stefan Lessard (bass), Dave Matthews (vocals, guitar), LeRoi Moore (saxophone) and Boyd Tinsley (violin) – has sold a collective 35 million units (CD and DVD combined) since the 1994 release of its major label debut, Under the Table and Dreaming. And this year also brings something special.
Concertgoers will be the first to hear the latest material from Dave Matthews Band, as the group debuts songs from its forthcoming album. The chart-topping band is currently in the studio with producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Alanis Morissette), working on the yet-to-be-titled album, which is the follow-up to 2005’s Stand Up, the fourth consecutive Dave Matthews Band studio record to debut at No. 1 on The Billboard 200. Guitarist and longtime friend Tim Reynolds is playing on the album, marking his first recording with the band since 1998’s Before These Crowded Streets.
Reserve seat tickets are $75 and $67.50; $40 for festival lawn and available at the Ford Amphitheatre Box Office, online at www.livenation.com, all Ticketmaster outlets, or to charge by phone call 813-287-8844 or 727-898-2100.
