About

Oroboros was a pioneering Cleveland-based jam band formed in 1980. Often cited as one of the first jam bands in the nation, the group was modeled after the Grateful Dead and maintained an 18-year career before disbanding in 1998. The band was known for its improvisational style and lived together in a communal house on Rushleigh Road. Throughout their career, they opened for notable acts such as The Kinks, Santana, and Hot Tuna, and performed at festivals like H.O.R.D.E. and Further. Following their breakup, members went on to form various projects, most notably the JiMiller Band led by frontman Jim Miller.
