They performed at Woodstock in August 1969...in December Nancy Nevins was hit by a drunk driver and nearly killed! She suffered a severely damaged vocal chord. She stopped singing for quite a while. They got back together in 1995 for Woodstock II, and got quite a positive reaciton. VH1 made a movie about the band: Sweetwater: A True Rock Story. They're still together and playing!

AFter further research, they're apparently not still together. The reunion version of Sweetwater didn't hang together. According to Nancy Nevins' web site, she is concentrating on her solo career and teaching English at the college level.
