Dave Matthews Band (also known by the acronym DMB) is a United States-based rock band, originally formed in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 1991 by singer-songwriter and guitarist Dave Matthews. Other band members include saxophonist LeRoi Moore, bassist Stefan Lessard, violinist Boyd Tinsley and drummer Carter Beauford. From 1998 to May 2008, the band performed most of their shows with keyboardist Butch Taylor who, while not officially named a member of the band, was a fixture on stage. For 2006 and 2007, the band added trumpet player Rashawn Ross — most noted as the live trumpet player for Soulive — to the stage. It is not yet known if his presence will be permanent. Moore, Beauford, Ross, Tinsley and (formerly) Taylor also perform backing vocals.

History Songwriter David John Matthews, working in Charlottesville as a bartender at Miller's bar in November 1990, made friends with a lawyer named Ross Hoffman. Hoffman convinced Matthews, usually reserved and scared of playing in front of people, to lay down a demo of the few songs he had written. Hoffman hoped Matthews could shop the songs in order to find other musicians to perform on some studio work with him. Hoffman encouraged Dave to approach Carter Beauford, a local musician on the Charlottesville music scene. Beauford had been in several bands and was currently playing on a jazz show on Black Entertainment Television (BET). After hearing the demo, Carter agreed to spend some time playing the drums, both inside and outside the studio. Dave also approached LeRoi Moore, another local jazz musician who often performed with the John D'earth Quintet to join them. Moore would be famous later for always wearing sunglasses during shows because of his stage fright.[2] Moore skeptically listened to the demo, but liked what he heard and decided that he too would give the young South African a chance. These three began working on Matthews's songs in 1991.[3]. Charlottesville is an independent city located within the confines of Albemarle County in the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States, and named after Sophia Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, the queen consort of King George III of the United Kingdom. ...

Dave later said in an interview with Michael Krugman, "In a way, initially it was just the three of us and I approached them with this tape and they said 'Sure,' cause they had time on their hands. They were both working on other things, but they had some afternoon time."[4] The beginning stages of this new band was, in the words of Morgan Delancey, "a time of trial and incubation."[5] Beauford would later recall that, "It started out as a three-piece thing with Dave and Leroi...working on some of Dave's songs. he only had four songs at the time..And it didn't work out with the three of us."[6] Dave would also say, "The first time we played together...we were awful. Not just kind of bad, I mean heinously bad. We tried a couple of different songs and they were all terrible...Sometimes it amazes me that we ever had a second rehearsal."[7]
Their limited instrumentals, however, did not provide the full sound they desired; more musicians were needed. Secrets was a former jazz fusion band based in Richmond, Virginia most notable for having LeRoi Moore and Carter Beauford as members before forming the Dave Matthews Band. Moore's former bandmate, John D'earth, conductor of the University of Virginia Orchestra and local musician, taught music at the Tandem Friends School. Stefan Lessard, a junior bassist at the time, was under his guidance in the student jazz combo, Yabanci Jazzites. On the recommendation of John D’Earth, the sixteen-year-old Lessard was asked to join in the studio to help complete the demo. While the partnership was never intended to continue beyond the studio, the four liked the sound and decided to continue together for live performances as well. Consequently, regular practices began in the basements of Carter Beauford and Matthews' mothers' homes. The University of Virginia (also called U.Va. ...

Peter Griesar was a bartender at Miller's beginning in 1989, and in August 1991, during Miller's annual respite for inventory, Matthews, Beauford, Moore and Lessard used the empty bar for rehearsing. Griesar heard them rehearsing and decided to stop working for a while, pulled out his harmonica, and started playing with them. After a few songs, he was invited to perform with them. He immediately accepted, becoming the band's first keyboardist. Griesar's last show with the band was March 23, 1993.

Boyd Tinsley was the last member to join the band. Although he had performed on the demo with Matthews, Moore, Beauford and Lessard, he was busy with a couple of other bands at the time (Boyd Tinsley Band and Down Boy Down) and did not want to commit to a group of musicians that were only together in the studio at the time. He didn't become a full-time member until the middle of 1992. Matthews later admitted, "We had no plans of adding a violinist. We just wanted some fiddle tracked on this one song ["Tripping Billies"], and Boyd was a friend of Leroi. He came in and it just clicked. That completely solidified the band, gave it a lot more power."[8]
Breaking out of Virginia (1991-1993) The band's first in-studio demo was recorded in February or March 1991, and consisted of "The Song That Jane Likes," "Recently," and "Tripping Billies," prior to Boyd joining as a full-time bandmember. Boyd only performed on "Tripping Billies." For other uses, see demo. ...

They still did not have a name for the band. One name that was thrown around was Dumela (which is the Tswana word for "hello"), but no real enthusiasm was ever felt, and they dropped it. One story is that Moore reportedly telephoned a place they were booked and said to just write Dave Matthews. The person receiving the call just wrote 'band' after the name, and the name stayed Dave Matthews Band from that point on.[10] Dave told Robert Trott of AP, "Boyd [Tinsley], if memory serves, wrote 'Dave Matthews Band [on this flyer for the show]. There was no time when we said, 'Let's call this band the Dave Matthews Band.' It just became that, and it sort of was too late to change when we started thinking that this could focus unfairly on me. People sort of made that association, but it's really not like that."[11] Tswana (Setswana), is a Bantu language. ...
Beauford seemed to agree with Matthew's analysis of the band name when he said to Modern Drummer that, "As a matter of fact, that's one of the things about this band that everybody likes: There isn't a leader. Each one of us can express ourselves musically without being choked by a leader. Everybody can offer what they feel is gonna enhance the music. So yeah, that's the main thing that all the guys — especially me — feel make this band happen. It's the freedom that we have to speak with our instruments."[12]
By the summer of 1991, they were playing at the Eastern Standard with Charles Newman as their manager for a brief time.[13] They were also playing a regular Tuesday night show at the popular Charlottesville club Trax. Tapings of shows at Trax are some of the most widely shared among DMB fans. After Newman, Coran Capshaw, owner of the Flood Zone where the band often played, took the helm of The Dave Matthews Band.[14] Chapshaw "wanted to work on garnering a grassroots following and allow word of mouth to advertise the band and then build upon that."[15] Trax was a nightclub in Charlottesville, Virginia most notable for launching the career of Dave Matthews Band. ...

Sensing that the band was on the verge of making it big, and not wanting to have his life ruled by the grueling schedule that touring musicians often face, Peter Griesar decided to leave after a show on March 23, 1993.[16].

On November 9, 1993, DMB released its first album, Remember Two Things, on its Bama Rags label. Live songs on the album were recorded at The Flood Zone in Richmond, Virginia on August 10, 1993, and The Muse Music Club on Nantucket Island on August 16-18, 1993. The album debuted on college charts as the highest independent entry, and went on to be certified platinum by the RIAA in 2002 [17] — a significant accomplishment for an independent album. Meanwhile, the band kept touring and its fan base continued to grow. By allowing fans to tape shows for their personal use, DMB created a highly interactive community that continues to this day. Only recently has the band had to take legal action against some bootleggers who sell recordings of their concerts at a profit — something the DMB trading community also abhors. is the 313th day of the year (314th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

In late 1997, the band returned to the studio with producer Steve Lillywhite and an array of guest collaborators, including Reynolds, banjoist Béla Fleck, vocalist Alanis Morissette, future permanent keyboardist and unofficial sixth band member Butch Taylor, and the Kronos Quartet. They composed and recorded Before These Crowded Streets, their third album with RCA, which was released on April 28, 1998. The album represented a great change in direction for the band as they did not rely on upbeat hit singles to carry the album. "Stay (Wasting Time)", an uplifting gospel number, and "Crush", a love ballad, became very popular tracks along with the lead single "Don't Drink the Water". Dave Matthews has commented that the inspiration for this song came from the treatment of Native Americans by the United States government.[18] Steve Lillywhite (born in 1955) is a well-known Grammy Award winning English music producer. ...

Turmoil in the studio (2000-2003)
 Dave Matthews, Boyd Tinsley, and Butch Taylor in Melbourne during their first tour of Australia During 2000, DMB set up their own recording studio at a large countryside home outside Charlottesville. With longtime producer Lillywhite at the helm, the band began work on a fourth studio album. Heavily influenced by personal conflicts, notably the death of Matthews' uncle from alcoholism, the songs recorded with Lillywhite rank as some of the darkest he has ever written. In the end, the studio sessions were a failure. In August 2000, the sessions were scrapped and the band's seven-year relationship with Lillywhite was over. Some believe DMB was unhappy with the atmosphere of the songs and frustrated with Lillywhite's often perfectionist style of production, while others believe Lillywhite was made into a scapegoat for the band's lack of professionalism during the recording sessions. Or, as Dave was quoted to say, he was in a depressive state and BMG kept asking him for happy music.

In October 2000, an energized Matthews began writing with Glen Ballard, most famous for his work with Alanis Morissette. The rest of DMB (along with special guest Carlos Santana) soon joined Matthews in a Los Angeles studio and quickly recorded Everyday. While the album gave the band a much-needed fresh start, Ballard's slick pop-music approach to production was very different from the creative process used to produce previous studio albums. Carter Beauford said that Everyday was a product of Matthews and Ballard and that it did not showcase the rest of the band.[citation needed] The February 27, 2001, release of Everyday was a huge commercial success. The singles "I Did It," "Everyday," and "The Space Between," brought the band an even larger level of popularity. However, some long-time members of the fanbase were disappointed with the release.[citation needed] Everyday's slick pop sound (including Dave Matthews' first ever recording sessions on electric guitar) was a big departure from the band's previous work and highly divergent from the songs recorded with Lillywhite.

In March 2001, the Lillywhite conflict came full circle when the 2000 studio sessions with the producer were leaked over the internet. The tracks spread like wildfire over established internet channels such as Napster. Better known as The Lillywhite Sessions, this rough album was lauded by both the fan base and the popular press. After critical comparison of the two simultaneous albums, fans that were less than pleased with Everyday's slicker sound were frustrated with the band's decision to scrap the work in exchange for Everyday.[citation needed] For Napster, LLC (formerly Roxio), and the paid Napster music service, see Napster (pay service). ...

The Lillywhite Sessions would, however, eventually be officially released. In response to overwhelming fan support, coupled with a popular and widely publicized online campaign known as the Release Lillywhite Recordings Campaign, DMB returned to the studio in 2002 to record Busted Stuff. Produced by Stephen Harris, the recording engineer who worked under Lillywhite on previous albums, the resulting CD provided new treatments of much of the Lillywhite Sessions' material, along with newly written songs "You Never Know" and the single "Where Are You Going?" which was subsequently used in the movie Mr. Deeds.

The band considered itself to be at a crucial crossroads in its evolution.[citation needed] The negative reaction to Everyday among its fans and the middling success of Busted Stuff, coupled with Dave Matthews' belief that the band has not made a great album since Before These Crowded Streets,[citation needed] all worked to create a sense of eagerness, if not urgency, to create a stellar album. Stand Up was released on May 10, 2005, debuting at #1 on the Billboard charts with sales of 465,000. Stand Up spawned the singles "American Baby," "Dreamgirl," and "Everybody Wake Up."

On April 25, 2006, Dave Matthews Band announced a $1.5 million challenge grant to help build the New Orleans Habitat Musicians' Village. The band returned to the studio in March 2006 (with the resultant album slated for release in winter[22]) before embarking on their annual summer tour. It features 51 shows across North America, having begun May 30 in St. Louis, Missouri, and concluded with a two-night stand on September 22-23 in the band's home town of Charlottesville, Virginia. The summer's notable locales for the 2006 tour were a two-night stand at Boston's Fenway Park and their first ever performance at the Hollywood Bowl. The Boston performance that took place on July 7 and 8 is featured as the sixth release in their "Live Trax" series. Along with the original five members and Butch Taylor, this featured new addition Rashawn Ross touring with the band full time. The trumpet player, who received recognition with DMB's fans while playing with the jazz band Soulive, guested on several shows in the summer of 2005 and the majority of the shows during the Winter 2005 tour. The band has also indicated that Rashawn will be around for quite some time (mentioning it during several shows in the first leg of the summer 2006 tour, the fact that he has been an important member of the recent studio sessions that have taken place both before and during the summer 2006 tour and his inclusion in the 2007 tour). The band used the summer tour to debut new songs such as "Sister," a song performed solo by Dave Matthews, "The Idea of You," "Kill the King," "Shotgun," "Break Free," and "Can't Stop." is the 115th day of the year (116th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
