Stay (Wasting Time) by The Dave Matthews Band

The Dave Matthews Band is a band of unlikely sorts. Their music is folksy, yet they have a jazz quality as well. The cat-and-mouse styling of Dave Matthews places him in a category of his own. His unique approach to specific structures and chord voicings makes the band sound like no other. They incorporate horns, violins, keyboards, and even frequent jam sessions into their music. Dave Matthews has released a solo album entitled ” Some Devil,” and worked with Phish guitar player Trey Anastasio and Tim Reynolds, long-time friend, bandmate, and guitar demon. He has also begun acting, which was his original passion in high school and college.
