The six-piece powerhouse—Rob Derhak (bass, vocals), Al Schnier (guitar, vocals), Chuck Garvey (guitar, vocals), Jim Loughlin (percussion, vibes), Vinnie Amico (drums), and newest member Nate Wilson (keyboards)—has remained a driving force in the jam scene for over three decades. From their University at Buffalo origins to playing hundreds of shows annually, moe. has built an unwavering bond with their fans, the Famoe.ly, thanks to their tireless touring, inventive musicianship, and genre-defying sound.
Their latest album, Circle of Giants, marks a pivotal moment in the band’s history. The record, praised for its resilience and raw emotion, was nearly complete when Derhak suffered an unthinkable personal loss—the passing of his son. In the face of adversity, the band channeled their grief into a deeply soulful, vibrant, and powerful collection of songs. Featuring the soaring single “Ups and Downs” and the expansive “Living Again,” Circle of Giants is both a tribute to the past and a beacon of hope for the future.
moe. has long been at the forefront of improvisational music, alongside Phish, Widespread Panic, and The String Cheese Incident, earning accolades from American Songwriter and NYS Music for their “mind-bending musicality” and “unbridled showmanship.” Their influence extends to headlining Bonnaroo, Japan’s Fuji Rock, and their own festivals, moe.down and snoe.down, cementing their place in jam band history.
As the band celebrates 35 years, their musical brotherhood remains unbreakable. “We’ve been through a lot,” says Derhak. “But we always find our way forward—because we have each other.”
