Rusted Root was formed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1990. Fronted by Michael Glabicki, the band is made up of six musicians including Jenn Wertz (guitar, vocals), Liz Berlin (guitar, vocals), Patrick Norman (bass, vocals), John Buynak (electric guitar, drums, flute), and Jim Donovan (drums). Every member of the band has proficiency in African drums, and this lends to the band’s strong percussion, which draws from Middle-Eastern, African, Latin, Native American and funk influences. The album “When I Woke” is their best-known album, and includes the hits “Ecstasy” and “Send Me On My Way,” the latter being included in several movie soundtracks.

Anyone else who, by hearing the song Hard Sun from Eddie Vedder, thought it was a Rusted Root song? Vedders voice matches Glabicki's at some stages very close.

Send Me On My Way! - great song. Heard it the other day on Ice Age. I have seen Matilda too but I never knew it was in that film. A very charming song.
