You cant choose what happens, only how you react to it, says Brendan Bayliss, guitarist and vocalist of the musically muscular and spontaneous band of merrymen Umphreys McGee. We had kind of a crazy year and it all came out on this record, elaborates guitarist and vocalist Jake Cinninger, referring to the bands third studio offering, Safety in Numbers. Though its not all obviously dark, theres kind of a theme that runs through it, he says. Following their New Years Eve 2004 gig, Umphreys McGee (its name is taken from a relative of Bayliss) lost a close ally when their friend and fan, Brian Schultz, was killed by a drunk driver. In addition to the bands collective loss, Bayliss was living through a personally emotional period of his own. A few weeks later, they were in the studio composing new songs.
