For The Giving Tree Band, the outlook matters more than the outcome. Yet, even with this policy, The Giving Tree Band has been steadily making their way towards the head of a classy class of young American songwriters and performers and consistently winning over each scene in the school. People everywhere are discovering The Giving Tree Band and when they do, a bond is established.

In addition to appearances at major music festivals like SXSW and Wakarusa, the GTB's high-energy standout performances received raving ovation at folk and roots fests such as Philly Folk Fest and ROMP in Kentucky. In their home stomping grounds of Illinois, the GTB perform annually at the Chicago Bluegrass and Blues Fest and Summer Camp Music Festival supporting living legends like Bela Fleck, David Grisman, and Del McCoury, as well as Billboard 200 recording artists, The Avett Brothers.
