The Grux - A Dave Matthews Tribute Band

The Grux - A Dave Matthews Tribute Band, hailing from San Antonio, Texas, formed in 2023, consists of 7 professional musicians that have come together from around the country. This band perfectly captures the essence of The Dave Matthews Band by delivering electrifying and engaging performances that get everyone up on their feet to dance and sing along. Their music takes listeners to a DMB concert, making them feel the chemistry and rapport between the musicians on stage. The band plays many hits and deep tracks from The Dave Matthews Band, but they often spice up their setlist, covering classic 80s hits like "Burning Down The House" (The Talking Heads), "Sledgehammer" (Peter Gabriel), Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower," and many other covers that DMB performs at their concerts.

The essence of their name, "The Grux," is a nod to the Dave Matthews Band itself. As revealed in a 2009 interview by Carter Beauford, DMB's drummer, "Groo Grux," originated as both a nickname for their late saxophonist LeRoi Moore and a representation of the unique, energetic rhythms that defined the band's early music.

The Grux strongly believes that if they can perform in front of the right audience, they can leave a lasting impression with their energetic and engaging shows. The band doesn't rely on backing tracks and instead plays solely on memory, creating mesmerizing improvisational solos.

In addition to the group's performances, The Grux is supported by its dedicated stage crew, guitar tech, and drum tech. These professionals work seamlessly with venue staff to ensure a flawless set-up and high-quality production. The crew is equipped with replica equipment and instruments used by the Dave Matthews Band members, further enhancing the authenticity of the band's performances.

Since January 2023, The Grux has been delivering a truly indescribable energy. Their passion, authenticity, and originality set them apart from being just a tribute band. They don't just play the music of The Dave Matthews Band; they interpret it uniquely, creating a fresh and exciting experience for their fans. Their connection with the music and the audience makes every performance unique and unforgettable.
