With the advent of so many great jam bands, one may think that composition is less important than virtuosic musicianship. Enter Chicago�s Herbert Wiser Band. While they are stellar musicians (as anyone who�s seen them live can attest) the main focus has always been to showcase their greatest asset: songwriting. Take their album Unusable Signal. Combining traditional rock rhythms with a myriad of musical influences ranging from country to hip-hop and everything in between, it's sure to have something for everyone and is the thing for people who crave musical diversity. Although they are a relatively young band, they pride themselves on the ability to put on an exciting live show any time and anywhere. This commitment to excellence has garnered them stage time with a diverse group of excellent musicians, sharing the stage with Umprhey's McGee, Groovatron, Tea Leaf Green, Backyard Tire Fire, Garaj Mahal, Bottle of Justus, U-Melt, and many more.
