This is a list of jam band music festivals . This list may have some overlap with list of historic rock festivals and list of reggae festivals . Jam bands are musical groups who relate to a unique fan culture that began in the 1960s with Grateful Dead (see deadheads ), and continued with The Allman Brothers Band , which had lengthy jams at concerts. The performances of these bands typically feature extended musical improvisation ("jams ") over rhythmic grooves and chord patterns , and long sets of music that can often cross genre boundaries.[ 1]
While the seminal group Grateful Dead are categorized as psychedelic rock ,[ 2] by the 1990s the term "jam band" was being used for groups playing a variety of rock-related genres, and jam band festival lineups could include blues , country music , folk music , and funk . Today the term even includes some groups completely outside rock, such as those playing world music , electronic music , progressive bluegrass , and jazz fusion .[ 1] A unique feature of the jam band scene is bands allowing fan taping or digital recording of live concerts.
