For the first time ever, the original quartet—featuring Fleck and his virtuosic bandmates Victor Wooten on bass, Roy “Future Man” Wooten on his one-of-a-kind drumitar, and Howard Levy on piano and harmonica—will be joined by saxophonist and former Flecktone Jeff Coffin (Dave Matthews Band) and renowned Tuvan throat singing ensemble Alash, who both appeared on the original recording. The tour will bring the band through multiple regions before concluding in New Orleans on December 20th at the iconic Joy Theater.

Outta be a solid show.

Also saw that Trombone Shorty, Dirty Dozen, and JoJo from Widespread Panic are doing a Tunes for Toys gig at Tips on December 4. Bring a toy and admission is free. Thought that was a cool touch.

Wish I knew about this earlier. Athens tix already sold out and secondary tickets are ridiculous. Never knew the Flecktones were still this popular today.

I feel like I remember seeing on Facebook they were touring earlier and it was all western PNW type places and I remember feeling grumpy about it.

The one time I saw the Flecktones in the late 90s, Future Man had his Drumitar lost by an airline so he had to play on a kit. Much prefer an actual drum kit to the Drumitar. And Wooten straight up melted my face that night.

Opening act was the Sun Ra Arkestra with John Medeski. Great show.

Anyone who plays or appreciates music in any way should read "The Music Lesson" by Victor Wooten. Also, "How Music Works" by David Byrne.
