Umphrey’s McGee Auctioning Off Custom Song

Umphrey’s McGee launched the “Got Your Song (Right Here)” campaign in which they will pen a tune for the highest bidder on an eBay auction. The band will record the song while working on new music and premiering their Wrapped In The Round livestream experiences early next month.

The auction ends on Monday, August 31 at 4:45 p.m. ET. Umphrey’s will then contact the winner via video chat on Tuesday, September 1 to discuss the winner’s ideas before the band gets down to work. The song and cover art will be delivered no later than September 25.

Read a note from Team Umphrey’s:

Have you ever wanted to emphatically say “I told you so” in song form? Or ever fantasized about having your very own “get out of the doghouse” song at the ready? You give us the name of your girl or boyfriend that you hope to be with forever. And we give you the preemptive apology you (hopefully) will never need. We all make mistakes, so why not be prepared?

Or simply offer proof to those friends who have a hard time believing you know the band.

Whatever your unique or future need may be, we are here to help. Win this auction and receive a customized tune of your very own, courtesy of your currently concertless friends here at Umphrey’s McGee. You supply us with the inspiration, starring characters, preferred genre(s), whether or not you want Joel in the mix, and we’ll take it from there.

Wrapped In The Round debuts on September 2 and 3 via TourGigs. Then, Umphrey’s will play a pair of drive-in style concerts on September 5 and 6 at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois near Chicago.
