It’s a year to the day since the sad event of Dave Matthews Band’s beloved saxophonist LeRoi Moore passing away. The band has done a great job honoring his memory with their tour this year, and especially with their new album Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King featuring saxophone parts by LeRoi.

Here’s a tribute video featuring a song called #34, which was the 34th track on DMB’s first major label release, Under the Table and Dreaming from 1994.

    leroi was a genius. so chill and calm. icnredible improviser. he will most certainly be missed. HOWEVER, dmb moves on with jeff coffin who is probably the only person to fill leroi’s shoes.
