Umphrey's McGee: Doing it Their Own Way

Photo by Chad Smith

Umphrey's McGee has always done things their way, and their way seems to be working. From the innovative delivery of bonus material to fans based upon the number of purchases of its prog-rock masterpiece, Mantis, to the handful of S2 events that are rooted in collaboration between band and fans, they are creating a new business plan for 21st century musicians.

This fall, Umphrey's will take another turn by releasing new material via digital EPs, beginning with a free download of "Wellwishers" which is available below.
