As was expected, Jeff Coffin officially joined the Dave Matthews Band at the beginning of the year. He had taken the place of LeRoi Moore during the 2008 tour, after Moore passed away from injuries he sustained in an accident. Coffin fits in well with the band, though his writing isn’t nearly as well known as that of Moore. It’s a bittersweet moment, but it’s nice to know where the band is headed now, finally. The next tour begins in late April, so it’s going to be a really exciting time!
