Hmm... I dunno if I have an overrated band. But I know a lot that are... I dunno if they are under rated or just under exposed, because they are more recent regional indie bands that are just incredible.

Case in point: Barefoot Truth - A Folk and Jazz influenced Jam band out of Vermont

His singing is better than his drumming, and his drumming is very good. Technically challenging.

Tight sound. Starting a song with a dIdgeridoo and not making it seem cheesy is hard. Gotta love a drummer taking lead vox though. I'd go check them out, looks like a fun show. Thanks for the suggestion.

Also, great production quality on the video/sound.

I'd forgotten how much I loved this band. Their live shows are total blast. This is pretty par for the course for them:

Just completely breaking it down in the middle of a song.
