Retreat Out Takes
Last week we shook off the city for a few days and gathered for our annual UM retreat. It was a time for us to sit back, take inventory of all things UM, and figure out how to keep plowing forward with new & innovative ideas musically and beyond. We covered a ton of ground over a wide spectrum and recharged the batteries to ensure there will be sufficient face melting in the years ahead. Here are a variety of audio out takes, video clips, and pictures for your perusal.
