Beloved band Greensky Bluegrass got to work at the Vogue Theatre in Indianapolis last night, hitting the Midwest venue as the second stop along their extensive winter tour. The band has been energized of late from their recently released 2016 album, Shouted, Written Down & Quoted, and even had some extra oomph from their recent inclusion on the 2017 Bonnaroo lineup.
The band wasted no time getting down in Indy, opening up their show with “Wings For Wheels” before turning into their cover of Pink Floyd’s “Breathe” and “Time.” They included their classic tunes like “The Four”, before ending the first set with “Past My Prime.” The second frame only brought more fun to the venue, as the band covered The Beatles’ “Why Don’t We Do It In The Road” within the song “Reuben’s Train.” They did another cover sandwich later on in the set, sandwiching the Smokey Robinson classic “I Second That Emotion” within “Broke Mountain Breakdown.’
After an encore that included a dedication to Jon Rosenberger, the band bid their fans a fond farewell. You can see the full setlist below, as compiled by Camp Greensky’s Andrew Sturtz, as well as a full gallery of images by Phierce Photo.
