Celebrate Joe Dart's Birthday With These Flashback Fool's Paradise Performances [Videos]

Joe Dart is becoming one of the preeminent bassists on the scene, with his punchy bass lines serving as the backbone for the funk-rock collective Vulfpeck and its offshoot project Fearless Flyers.

It also just so happens today, April 18th, is Joe Dart’s birthday, and we’re so happy to celebrate another trip around the sun for the talented musician. To celebrate, we’re throwing it back to the inaugural year of Fool’s Paradise in 2016, when Vulfpeck laid down two incredible sets during their first-ever festival performances. Throughout the weekend, the group had a bunch of special guests sit in, and Vulfpeck more or less stole the festival spotlight.

Revisit the 2016 festival performances that helped solidify Mr. Dart and the rest of his compadres in Vulfpeck in our hearts and ears below. Scroll down to watch the pro-shot and fan-shot performance videos featuring sit-ins from Cory Henry, Antwuan Stanley, Adam Deitch, Eric Krasno, and Ryan Zoidis.
