Best Jam Band and More Label

At first Sci-Fidelity’s website was principally a venue for the String Cheese Incident, Colorado’s most extravagant gift to the neo-hippie crowd. No more. The success of the band has allowed the label to expand its roster to include Incident-related acts such as Comotion (a side project) and DJ Harry, as well as the jam-friendly collective Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe and the Yonder Mountain String Band, a Colorado combo that builds upon bluegrass without burying it. Next up: A disc by Grammy winner Steve Winwood. That’s big news — and Sci-Fidelity is bound to get bigger.
