sweetwater's 1968 Concert History

Sweetwater was the first GROUP to play at the Woodstock festival (after Richie Havens, Country Joe McDonald and John Sebastian). Their music-style is a fusion of rock, jazz, folk, psychedelia, latin and even classical music. They released three albums in the period of 1968 - 1971. Their career was shortlived due to a tragic auto accident involving lead singer Nansi Nevins, which led to her vocal chords being injured. They reformed for the 1994 Woodstock II-festival and has kept at it since then...
