Official Perpetual Groove After-party featuring

THE CORE: A H.O.R.D.E. Festival Revival

Friday March 13, 2026

@ Live Wire Athens

  • Doors open @ 9pm, Music from 10pm until late late late!
  • Catch PGroove band members sitting in with the band after 11pmish!!
  • 18 & up show (under 18 ok with parent or guardian)
  • Tickets are $15 advance (+tax/fees), $20 at the door ($15 at door with proof of Perpetual Groove ticket purchase for either March 13 or March 14 show)
  • Venue is located at 227 W. Dougherty Street

Join the official Perpetual Groove After Party!
Throw down with THE CORE: A H.O.R.D.E. FESTIVAL REVIVAL — and yes, members of Perpetual Groove will be sitting in for the late-night sets!

The Core is bringing back everything we loved about the classic ’90s HORDE Festivals: Widespread Panic, Dave Matthews Band, Phish, Blues Traveler, Big Head Todd & The Monsters, The Allman Brothers Band, Gov’t Mule, Spin Doctors—basically all the stuff that made that era unforgettable.

It’s a full-on trip back to when these bands were young, hungry, and blowing minds. Think ’92–’98 energy: no phones, no streaming, no responsibilities—just loud guitars, big jams, and songs that shaped a generation.

🔥 TWO SETS ALL NIGHT 🔥

SET ONE:
A big, deep, jam-heavy Dave Matthews Band tribute set.
With special guests:
• Adam Poulin — fiddle
• GnarlyG (Funk You) — sax & flute

SET TWO:
A run through the bands that defined the early-’90s H.O.R.D.E. Festivals—Panic, Blues Traveler, Gov’t Mule, Spin Doctors, Big Head Todd, The Allman Brothers Band, and more.

🎸 The Core lineup:

• Josh Carson (Acoustic Workshop, Parts & Labor)
• Bo Hembree (Dreams So Real, Diablo Sandwich)
• Chris Queen (Allgood, Phil Keaggy, Dreams So Real)
• Kevin Leahy (Bodeans, Bloodkin, Sugarland, Shawn Mullins, Allgood, Zac Brown)
• Rob Sumowski (Allgood, Billy Pilgrim, Shawn Mullins, Kevn Kinney, Brent Cobb)
• Bill Taylor (Tribute: A Celebration of The Allman Brothers Band, Jupiter Coyote, The Bitteroots)

If you were there back in the day, this will feel like coming home.
If you weren’t, you’re about to find out why it mattered.

Either way — don’t miss this one.
