This year’s NonCOMM has not only provided a platform for up-and-coming artists, but also a place for heritage artists to prove they still have the goods. Blues Traveler was no exception. The band was greeted with thunderous applause by the crowd before launching into songs from their new album Blow Up the Moon, including the reggae-tinged “Castaway” and a song they collaborated on with Hanson called “Top of the World.” Popper’s voice has not aged a day – he’s still as soulful and powerful as he was back in the 90’s.

Speaking of the 90’s, Blues Traveler dug into their back catalog and played their three biggest hits: “Runaround,” “But Anyway,” and finished with an incredible take on “Hook.” Check out photos from the set in the gallery below and listen to an archive of the performance.
