The Band — Umphrey's McGee

Scotty Zwang Drums, Vocals

Scotty joined as the band's full-time drummer in 2025, following stints with Dopapod, Ghost Light, and SunSquabi. He first sat in with UM as a touring fill-in before becoming a permanent member.

Joel Cummins Keyboards, Vocals

A founding member from Metropolis, Illinois, Joel anchors the band's sound on keys and is known for a deep, ever-growing collection of vintage and modern keyboards.

Brendan Bayliss Guitar, Vocals

Brendan co-founded the band in South Bend, Indiana in 1997 after meeting Joel Cummins in a music theory class at Notre Dame. He's been the band's lead vocalist and one of its primary songwriters ever since.

Andy Farag Percussion

Joining in 1998, Andy brought a percussion-forward layer to the band's sound early on, becoming a fixture behind the congas, cowbell, and the rest of the kit ever since.

Ryan Stasik Bass

Hailing from Pittsburgh, founding member Ryan picked up bass to round out the band's original lineup after starting on piano and guitar. His playing has anchored the low end of every UM show since the beginning in 1998.
