Widespread Panic in Milwaukee

Widespread Panic, the legendary jam band from Athens, Georgia, brings their celebrated live performance to Milwaukee. Drawing from southern rock, blues, funk, and progressive rock, the band has built a devoted following since forming in 1986. The current lineup—John Bell, Dave Schools, Jimmy Herring—carries forward a tradition of improvisation and tight musicianship, drawing comparisons to the Grateful Dead and Phish.

Attendees can expect a night filled with classics like 'Chilly Water' and 'Driving Song.' The band's on-stage chemistry creates an electric atmosphere. With a history of sold-out shows at Red Rocks, Widespread Panic delivers a marathon of musical exploration.

The band's 1986 debut at a charity event in Athens launched a career that includes setting records for sold-out performances at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and State Farm Arena. Their live album 'Light Fuse, Get Away' sparked one of the largest CD release parties in history, drawing up to 100,000 fans.
