Widespread Panic at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre

The St. Augustine Amphitheatre welcomes Widespread Panic. The three-night event kicks off on Friday, March 21, and Saturday, March 22, with shows starting at 7:00 p.m. and doors opening at 6:00 p.m. The last show is on Sunday, March 23, at 6:30 p.m., with doors opening at 5:30 p.m.

These improvisational masters have performed for more than 30 years and have released 12 studio albums and 43 live albums. With more than three million copies sold, they are considered one of the world's most successful touring acts. This jam band held tight to its roots of good old-fashioned rock, with jams that return us to a time when bands like Led Zeppelin held the reins.

Formed by frontman (vocalist/guitarist) John "JB" Bell, bassist Dave Schools, and late guitarist Michael Houser, the musicians met when they were students at the University of Georgia and took off from there. Later, drummer Todd Nance, percussionist Domingo "Sunny" Ortiz, and keyboard player John "JoJo" Hermann joined the group. Widespread Panic was admitted into the Georgia Hall of Fame in 2008.
