Umphrey's McGee offered an outdoor performance at Red Butte Garden in Salt Lake City, UT, on Sunday evening, and guitarist Jake Cinninger got his night started early by joining opening act Pigeons Playing Ping Pong during their set.
Cinninger emerged to help the Baltimore pop-funk outfit with their tune "Poseidon" in the middle of their warmup performance, which also included the band's cover of "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" from classic Disney movie The Lion King.
For their headlining sets, Umphrey's opened set one with "Conduit" and fit staples like "In the Kitchen" and "Nothing Too Fancy" into their performance, along with their "Frankie Zombie" mashup, which takes from White Zombie's “Thunder Kiss '65,” Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s “Relax” and Pink Floyd's “Have A Cigar.”
Check out both setlists below, plus a fan-shot video clip of of the Cinninger/Pigeons collaboration (h/t Live For Live Music). Next up for Umphrey's is a hometown show in Chicago this Saturday, Aug. 10, while Pigeons are off until they play Maryland's Hot August Music Festival Aug. 17.
