    Steal Your Peach Band:
    We are a mixture of some of hardest working musicians in the Philadelphia area including members or former members of Live at The Fillmore, Tom Hamilton's American Babies, Dead on Live, Rainbow Full of Sound, Splintered Sunlight and more, specializing in a mashup concept, fusing the music of The Allman Brothers Band and The Grateful Dead. Each of us has multiple projects currently both original and not, but have formed a bond here with some of our favorite and most influential music, paying close attention to detail of all of the original music, while also adding our own improv to the mix making each show unique and exciting, and to create a very tangible symbiotic experience between the band and the listeners. There is nothing like coming back to pay homage to the music that inspired us all to play. We have played Brooklyn Bowl, Trocadero Theater, Ardmore Music Hall, Musikfest Cafe, Underground Arts, Abbey Bar at Appalachian Brewing Company, River Street Jazz Cafe, Stout's Brewery.
