Ekoostik Hookah is a Columbus-based jam band with a national following, in part because of the twice-yearly weekend music fest Hookahville that they host in central Ohio. The band recently reformed with the original lead singer John Mullins back in the saddle. Their sound shows the influence of the Dead, bluegrass, and rock. Steve Sweeney's hot guitar usually leads the way through their intricate jams.
The band will play New Year's Eve at the Lifestyles Pavillion in Columbus, where I've seen them the last two years. They put on a hell of a show. Here, they take on a Pink Floyd classic from last year's spring Hookahville.
