Dave Matthews Band also known by the acronym DMB is an American rock band. The band originated from Charlottesville, Virginia in 1991 as an experiment of singer and guitarist Dave Matthews, saxophonist Leroi Moore, bassist Stefan Lessard, violin player Boyd Tinsley, drummer Carter Beauford, and keyboardist Peter Griesar (who left the band in 1993). All band members met Dave in Charlottesville. Since 1998 the band has performed at most of their shows with keyboardist Butch Taylor, who while not an officially named member of the band, is a fixture on stage. In 2005, the band added trumpet player Rashawn Ross to the stage. Moore, Beauford, Ross, Tinsley and Taylor also perform back up vocals.
Dave Matthews made several appearances in the UK during the Spring of 2006, notably performing a one-off solo show at the King's College Student Union (Tutu's) on February 28th, followed a little while later by a small solo tour to promote the release of Stand Up in the UK, performing at the Manchester Academy 1 on May 12th, the Birmingham Academy on May 13th and the London Hammersmith Apollo on May 15th. The tour was largely promoted through independent channels; Warehouse ticketing for the February 28th show was available exclusively to UK members and promoted via email, and interviews were mostly conducted by minor shows rather than by mass media outlets. Dave also played a show on May 11th at the Maida Vale Studios for the Radio 2 Bob Harris show, attended by competition winners who formed an intimate crowd of around 100 people.

Artist Biography - Dave Mathew And Tim Reynolds
|
Dave Matthews Band announced on April 25, 2006, a $1.5 million challenge grant to help build the New Orleans Habitat Musicians' Village. The band returned to the studio in March 2006 before embarking on their annual summer tour.
Tim Reynolds is a guitarist and multi-instrumentalist. Founding member of the band TR3, he has frequently guested with the Dave Matthews Band, has played several tours with Dave Matthews as an acoustic duo, and also as a member of Dave Matthews & Friends. Reynolds has stated, "I come from nowhere mostly. My dad was in the Army so we moved around a lot. Germany is where I was born, and after that we lived on a farm in Indiana, then on an army base in Alaska, then to Kansas, then to Missouri, where we lived the longest (thus the nowhere). Then I moved to Virginia, and I was there for 17 years or so. Now I live in New Mexico and this is the best place I could be. I mostly come from space."
As the child of pious, fiercely conservative parents, Reynold's musical introduction began at age 12, playing electric bass before writhing congregations of ecstatic worshipers three times a week ) until his high school graduation. Tiring of the constraints of imposed conservatism, he secretly plunged into jazz and "forbidden" late 1960s and early 1970s psychedelic rock. At age 18, he left home to join a group of "experimental" musicians. After absorbing much from them and the dozen other bands that followed, he eventually settled in Charlottesville, Virginia.
There he founded TR3. It was in this environment that Tim could explore his art, with impromptu performances on sitar, solo jazz guitar, solo djembe, twelve string guitar, violin, and mandolin. Tim's influences, which include Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley and Led Zeppelin, among others, are indirectly felt in the fabric of Tim's power trio and solo projects. After 17 or so years in Charlottesville, Virginia, Tim now resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and as Tim stated, "It is the best place I could be."
Reynolds explains that he was playing in Charlottesville, VA in the late 1980s. "I played there (Miller's in Charlottesville) all the time. Dave Matthews was the bartender. I knew the rest of the band way before that. We played together in Charlottesville since I moved there in 1981. I would play with LeRoi Moore and Carter Beauford. Dave moved to town in 1987. When the Dave Matthews Band started (1991), I already had my own band TR3. I told him (Dave Matthews), "I've got a band and I kind of like the way it is. You should start your band." I could see that he needed to do his own thing."
