Late last summer, Flying Mojito Bros touched down at Bethel Woods, the hallowed site of Woodstock 1969, for a euphoric DJ set at the invitation of Pretty Lights to keep the party rolling after the band’s headline show. Now, Live For Live Music is thrilled to present the exclusive video premiere of Flying Mojito Bros’ full performance on YouTube.
Known for their signature blend of Cosmic Desert Disco and Outlaw House music, the U.K.-based duo delivered a lovingly-produced selection of their reverent re-edits that pay homage to the legends that so iconically appeared at the grounds.
With over 3,000 fans making their way from Pretty Lights’ headline performance to stay for the after-show, FMB confidently included mind-melting, unique reworks of Santana, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, the Grateful Dead, and Creedence Clearwater Revival—all artists who graced the stages of the original festival.
“We tailored it, as we always do, closely to the situation,” FMB shared.
“As classic rock and Americana obsessives, playing our refritos of artists from the original festival while overlooking the grounds themselves felt really special and was a no-brainer—summoning those friendly spirits of the past—and we could really feel that back from the crowd. It felt like a celestial, full-circle kind of homecoming, and we love the fact that British artists are part of that history too. You guys call it synchronicity, right?”
That synchronicity has been following the London lads lately. Having recently crossed over from club culture into the jam band world via appearances at Phish Mexico, Mondegreen, and other Pretty Lights afterparties, the Bethel Woods performance demonstrates why Flying Mojito Bros are winning hearts among the heads as the most credible, capable, and inventive party people on the scene.

Next up? The DJ duo’s debut album of original productions, Just Passing Through, drops April 25th, 2025 on Ubiquity Records.
An April run in support of the album takes in Seattle, San Francisco, and Hollywood (appearing to loosely follow Phish’s tour). Dates at Boulder, Telluride, and new Deadhead venue Garcia’s in Chicago follow in July [ticketing information].
