Deadgrass return for their 3rd Annual Halloween shows\, bringing the music of Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead into the hands of five seriously accomplished bluegrass musicians. Deadgrass isn't a traditional tribute band. This string band digs deep into Jerry Garcia’s musical world\, drawing from the Grateful Dead\, Jerry Garcia Band\, Old & In the Way and even Garcia’s early jug band days. Banjo\, fiddle\, guitar\, bass and soaring vocal harmonies meet improvisation and extended jams\, revealing just how naturally Garcia’s music connects back to the acoustic traditions that first inspired him. The group began when Matt Turk and C. Lanzbom joined forces more than six years ago and now features bassist Dave Richards\, banjo player Scott Hopkins and fiddler Kensuke Shoji. This lineup of seasoned musicians has the chops to stretch these songs in new directions while staying connected to what made them beloved in the first place. NYS Music praised the band’s “phenomenal chops” and Garcia-inspired vocal harmonies\, calling the result “refreshing and fun.” Cindy O. Herman of the Daily Item recommends them to anyone who loves the Dead and wants to hear the music interpreted by “a thoughtful and respectful group of superb musicians.” SAMPLE SONG If you know every note of “Scarlet Begonias\,” this one's for you. If you came to Jerry Garcia through bluegrass and Old & In the Way\, it's for you\, too. And if you've never quite understood what Deadheads have been carrying on about all these years\, come find out. And because it’s Halloween at Lena’s\, costumes are VERY welcome. Our staff and volunteers will be getting into the spirit\, too. Deadgrass + Halloween + Caffè Lena. Year three. Let's do it again. Stream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.
