Dave Matthews to Release Recording of 1996 Solo Concert at Sweet Briar College
Once upon a time, before his career really took off, Dave Matthews played an outdoor solo gig at Sweet Briar College in Amherst County. Twenty years later, that performance can be heard in its entirety. The Dave Matthews Band announced Friday it's releasing a recording of the show, as well special-edition T-shirts featuring the school's vixen mascot, with all proceeds donated to the tiny all-women's private college that almost permanently closed last year because of financial woes.
