Introduction To Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band was shaped in Charlottesville, VA in 1991 by South African native singer and guitarist Dave Matthews, bassist Stefan Lessard, LeRoi Moore, who engage in recreation a wide range of instruments from the saxophone to the flute, violin player Boyd Tinsley, drummer Carter Beauford, and keyboardist Peter Griesar (who left the band in 1993), all of whom Dave met in Charlottesville. In 1998, the group played shows with keyboardist Butch Taylor, although he is not officially a member of the group. Taylor played with the band for the stadium runs of the 1999 and 2000 summer tours. From May 18th, 2001 on, Taylor was a lasting fixture on stage, and in 2003 was no longer listed as “special guest”. Even though he was never officially part of the line-up, the recently declared that Butch was leaving the band via their website, and the 2008 summer tour had some of the first shows without Taylor in years. Rashawn Ross has performed at every normal show from January 2005 until the present; most important some to believe that he has joined the group, at least semi-permanently. It is also declared that Ross was in the studio with the band during the recent sessions. As of early 2009, Ross, long time collaborator Tim Reynolds, and new saxophonist Jeff Coffin are listed as “Touring Members”.
