Blind Pig, The |
Ann Arbor |
MI | Synths and keyboards contrast with guitar early. Drum fills and cymbal crashes crank the intensity after 7 min. Guitar fanning from Jake delivers peaks after 8.5 min with punctuating piano runs. A swirling, slightly atonal return to Shadow after 9 min. |

10 Mile Music Hall |
Frisco |
CO | Guitar sizzles over bass and ride cymbal groove with piano support early, e.g. 6 min. Tension builds alongside a 12 Pounds of Pain tease at 8 min. Hard rock riffing after 10 min with double duty Dani on organ and synths for dark energy. Jake inserts Smile riff after 12 min during drum build; brilliant! Band slides into repeating shuffle that bridges gap between Latin music and heavy metal, e.g. 14 min, before a shreddy peak that deftly side-steps from 12 Pounds of Pain DNA back to Shadow proper. |

Salt Shed, The |
Chicago |
IL | Peaky tension early, e.g. 7 min. Jam turns rhythmic as band taps the intensity brakes after 9.5 min. Keyboard effects add depth after 12 min, while guitar play expands with high octave delay effects. Bubbling, gurgling Dani tones after 14 min push things even farther out, and Mike employs synth pedal effects to assist in the pursuit of the weird before a return to Shadow. |

State Room, The |
Salt Lake City |
UT | From near Shallow Rivers to thoughtful space at 6 min, with piano and whammy bar haze at 7 min. After 9 min a simple repeating Jake lick and Dani synths, then organ. Relaxed rhythmic space from Alex as patience reigns. Guitar sustain at 13 min as a bit of momentum emerges amidst the bass and supportive organ swells. Near-Wayless "all of these lights" vibes between 14-15 min queue up the segue. |

Visulite Theatre |
Charlotte |
NC | Fluid guitar early, and Moog drones, e.g. 5 min. Subtle squirmy effects add dimension from 5-7 min as jam intensifies. Active guitar, bass, and drums, and Dani’s Moog work is no slouch, e.g. 7-8 min. Repeating riff as the band loads a figurative spring, e.g. 9 min. Alex and Jake are racing, and Mike keeps up with the breakneck pace, at 10 min while Dani lays on the Moog tones and supports on piano. Peaky tension (go Mike!) is tipped over by Jake around 11 min. Finishes quietly, with purpose. |

Barrelhouse Ballroom, The |
Chattanooga |
TN | Major key guitar alongside crystalline piano, e.g. 4 min, before a pivot. Synths and percussive, chunky Jake chords and runs, e.g. 6 min. Darker vibes emerge after 7 min with Moog drones and rooted, downbeat groove. Active-yet-measured guitar at 9 min. Resets at 10 min with peaceful synths balancing the still-dark vibes before a fade to Dixie Chicken. |
