SUMMARY:Dave Matthews Tribute Band w/ Rich Ortiz
DESCRIPTION:Doors: 7:00pm\nShow: 8:00pm \nAges: 18+ \nTickets: SOLD OUT! \n  \nDMTB is a celebration of the music of the Dave Matthews Band – a time machine to a funky tea party in the 90’s\, a boisterous era of tape trading\, sing-alongs\, and exploration into a new sonic landscape spearheaded by complex guitar riffs\, soaring violin melodies\, smooth sax lines\, and explorative-explosive drumming. \nDedicated to recreating that moment in musical history\, the DMTB has been honing their craft for over 17 years. Since 2004\, the band’s ruthless touring schedule has been unparalleled\, playing over 2000 shows in 46 states and 10 countries. The Buffalo\, NY based band has successfully paid tribute to the Dave Matthews Band\, with heartfelt recreation of DMB’s musical spirit. \nThe DMTB aims to transport the listener back in time. The band takes inspiration from the classic DMB sound\, with immense respect for the original quintet. While including material from the bands later and current catalogs\, the goal is to create a well rounded and authentic tribute. \nThe attention to details\, love for the music\, and sense of community creates an atmosphere that causes concert goers to say “…wow\, if I close my eyes\, it’s like I’m there!” \nWebsite: www.thedmtb.com \n  \n \n  \n  \n \nRich Ortiz’s style is truly his own and his music is his soul. Ortiz\, never a wallflower\, believes he is the product of his family’s cultural diversity and strengths. Since the age of seventeen he’s focused all of his talents and time on his acoustic solo act\, if you can call it that. Rich plays guitar\, harmonica\, and peddle bass (with his feet)\, and he turns heads with his vocals! He has opened shows for CHICAGO\, REO Speedwagon\, STYX\, Ted Nugent\, Ludacris\, Hoobastank\, KC and The Sunshine Band\, Jeffrey Gaines\, Ryan Montbleau Band\, The Wood Brothers\, Robert Randolph\, Tea Leaf Green\, Zach Deputy\, Kracker\, Merl Saunders\, Melvin Seals\, Jim Weider and the Drifters. \nInspired by artists like Jim Croce\, James Taylor\, The Beatles\, Stevie Wonder and Willie Nelson\, he says “I feel I have to change every gig around in order to grow as a musician.” He plays six and twelve string acoustic guitar and chooses not to cultivate a target audience. He thinks “ideally the feeling of people who leave the room or listen to your CD should be one of making someone’s day. What comes out of your tongue says a lot about your soul.” \nIn 2006\, Ortiz released his debut album\, “Let It Be Life”. Recorded with the help of Grammy winning producer\, John Seymour\, the album features live\, unedited studio recordings of all original works. Soon after its release\, “Let It Be Life” was listed as one of the Top-40 selling Funk/Blues albums on CD Baby\, the #1 online record store for independent music. \nIn 2010\, Ortiz released his sophomore album\, “Face of a Lion”\, which features guest musician Kofi Burbridge (Tedeschi Trucks Band). Most recently\, Ortiz released his 2023 single\, “Water is Our Witness.” \nAs his passion for life grows stronger\, so does the energy in his music. Rich is a truly rare\, authentic talent. \nWebsite: www.richortiz.com \n  \n \n  \nReturn to Calendar \n
