Jake Cinninger & Joel Cummins of Umphrey’s McGee bring their unique duo sound to Traverse City for the first time. Two sets of mind-blowing musicianship in the form of Umphrey’s tunes you love, singalong covers and wild improvisation.

An exciting, feel-good evening of music from some absolute legends of the jam scene. It might be just two musicians on stage, but your ears will tell you it sounds like many more.

JAKE CINNINGER

From Niles, Michigan, Jake Cinninger is a rare breed. His musical virtuosity starts at an almost unfathomable age, drumming prolifically at the age of 3. Cinninger had played more gigs by the age of 13 than many musicians have played in a lifetime.

His musical knowledge runs deeper than the Pacific, with his ability to play a dozen instruments only matched by his extensive mental index of tens of thousands of albums. With a highly trained ear, Jake can extract the best tone from virtually anything in proximity.

JOEL CUMMINS

One rarely finds an only child like Joel Cummins loose in the wild. An eternal optimist and beacon of positivity, it takes more than a broken keyboard and curfew mix up to rain on Joel’s parade. Cummins hails from Metropolis, Illinois, growing up mere streets away from Superman, giving him a supernatural ability to amass both vintage & current keyboards.

After years of rigorous piano studies, Joel ex- panded his arsenal to include more than 119 keyboards (after intense negotiations with the crew, Joel’s setup has been limited to six, occasionally seven keyboards, in his live rig).

Joel’s passions extend far beyond the musical realm, with a love for travel with his wife Dasha, great cuisine, chatting up strangers and generally making the world a better place whether he’s on the road or at home in Venice, California.
