In 1984, well before the explosion of extended instrumental concerts, an improvisational band playing original music named Indecision emerged out of Charlottesville, Virginia. Drawing from a wide variety of influences, including The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, The Band, Steely Dan, and Little Feat, as well as the more complex rhythmic and harmonic structure of many jazz artists, Indecision forged a unique sound in the relatively new movement of improvisational music known today as the jam band scene.
