Moon Taxi | 10:00 PM
 Moon Taxi is an explosive Rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. They have spent the past couple years touring relentlessly, honing their unique sound. They have played the 10,000 Lakes Festival in Minnesota, Moe's SummerCamp Festival, Birmingham's City Stages, the Terrapin Hill Harvest Festival and clubs from Texas to New York City. They have just released their highly anticipated new live album, Live Ride. Coming out on February 10th, the album was recorded live in Nashville and features 8 previously unreleased songs as well as favorites from their debut album Melodica. The album is available online and at select independent record stores.
From JamBase Review of Live Ride:
"Nashville's Moon Taxi redeem the notion of a 'jam band.' Moon Taxi synthesizes divergent elements into a cohesive, concert-ready rush, which makes Live Ride a prime intro to this vibrant group. These performances capture a going-for-the-jugular dedication that looks for the folks in the back of the room not getting off and strives to make them pop. In their mixture of interesting time signatures, feel good melodies and genre-snubbing diversity, they are kin to archetypal jam bands like God Street Wine, String Cheese and the aforementioned Phish, but like those bands, possess their own identity, their own way of handling the raw materials. What one finds on Live Ride is well played, well sung music with clever, satisfying touches galore tucked into the songs. Moon Taxi seems interested in music without borders, and that alone marks them as one to keep an ear bent towards in the future."
From American Music Channel's "Onward and Upward and to the Moon" with Moon Taxi:
"With the word “songwriter,” a lot of people will conjure images of a guy in a collared shirt strumming an acoustic guitar and crooning melancholy ballads, or scribbling lyrics on scraps of paper and humming mechanically, fleshing out the next big radio hit. Rarely does band practice come to mind, and yet, five guys, each on their respective instruments, piecing together their parts to blend cohesive instrumentation into the context of a new song, albeit less commonplace or clichéd, is songwriting nonetheless. A prime example of this communal technique, Moon Taxi is a band of songwriters."
