Joined:A lot of the better-known other bands have topics of their own. If you don't see your particular favorite with its own topic, feel free to talk about it here. And hey, if it takes on a life of its own we'll give it a topic!

Joined:The Barry Walker UnitThis album is 100% instrumental and conjures up images of those long '69 through '72 Dark Star jams. They use a combination of twangy guitars and pedal steel to create an incredible spacy soundscape. w cubed dot twangrila dot com travelling-through-time-and-space-with-the-barry-walker-unit-at-the-13th-moon-gravity-well

Joined:The Grateful Dudes!I hope this is the right place for this, but I have not posted anything here for a very long time. For us deadheads in the UK (and elsewhere naturally) I would recommend the Grateful Dudes. Their latest show at Hebden Bridge is available on Bandcamp and it’s a cracker! They are always on the lookout for new venues too. The October edition of International Times has a great article on them and various links.

Joined:Billy stringsWhen they push the jamming on the live stuff it has that same burning, big bang propulsion that only Hawkwind seems to know how to play, the fact they do it with acoustic instruments is even more impressive. It is definitely string band/bluegrass, music, but it sits on the edge of time. Greensky Bluegrass can do it sometimes, especially on courage for the road, but most jamgrass bands seem like singer/songwriters cloaked in banjos and weed. Strings and his band are true cosmic champions.

Joined:And yet more...Billy Strings !Stalk-Forrest -that's an intriguing idea, that some of his music reminds you of Hawkwind. I think I'm going to enjoy listening to more music by Billy Strings.
I also noticed that he is coming to England in October, so I snagged a ticket. Having seen Hawkwind last month - my first live concert since before Covid - I was looking to see what else I could see who might be interesting, and this fits the bill perfectly.
The only thing is, he is playing at The Royal Albert Hall, which is quite big, and I am up in the circle. Its a beautiful hall, but one I associate more with classic rock bands. We shall see ! - Stalk-Forrest Hermit
Joined:Billy StingsHe and his band remind me of the Dead more than most jam bands, yet also remind me of Hawkwind while being firmly in the bluegrass fold. They have a vast knowledge of old standards and can push their music in any direction. All of his albums are good and his catalog of live shows on Nugs is wonderful place to get lost.

Stephen Ingles. Cut the Dead some Slack
Thanks for the tip. In case you missed it, there's a short documentary out on Vimeo where Stephen talks to GD historian Blair Jackson while recording for the slack project out in CA: https://vimeo.com/223074777
It's really cool seeing two GD nerds discuss the project's background. David Gans also makes an appearance.

Marcus King Band
This kid is real special and has surrounded himself with some solid musicians. Check 'em out!

Circles Around the Sun
They are obviously solid, very tight musicians. However, I found their recorded music to be almost muzac for Deadheads...excellent background music played by exceptional musicians. Luckily, I had opportunity to catch a live show, and for $20, I gave it a shot. All I can say is "Wow"...extreme energy live...very tight, almost disciplined live, but also highly creative and improvisational. They played about 2 1/2 hours non-stop with VERY impressive jams. I highly recommend their live shows.

Grateful Dead Latin Style
Hi all, I am latin percussionist and Lifelong Deadhead. I am planning to launch an equity crowdfund for a Latin Jazz Grateful Dead Tribute project called "The Latin Dead" but first reaching out to the Dead community in case there was some interested investors looking to take the ride and help us thrive! I have a detailed business plan I can provide for any serious inquiries. Please feel free to message me directly here or via email at... latindeadmusic@gmail.com

Starcat = killer Jerry Garcia Band tribute
I may be spoiled, but Indianapolis has an amazing band called Starcat that performs music by the Jerry Garcia Band with a lineup that resembles Jerry's classic 90's outfit.

Shakedown Citi in NYC Area
Wanted to share this up-and-coming tribute band, Shakedown Citi, that I just saw live. The group formed last year in the Citi Fields parking lot and really have something special going on. They play a ton of show in/around NYC --- I'm especially excited for their show at Hill Country Live on Tues. Sept. 3. You should be able to find them with a quick google search-- they got active website, socials, and a link tree for upcoming gigs.

Happily recently stumbled across some hard workin rocker women in a band called

They're bringing it hard fast and loud.
Check 'em out Baba O'Riley
Steely Dead
This band is such an amazing fusion of Steely Dan and the Dead, I just can't even explain. They seamlessly transition between the two groups catalogues, it blows my mind. They play with enthusiasm, unbridled!! I would encourage anyone to check these guys out. So much fun!!
Billy Strings at KC Wednesday night
His song 'Knew It All'
"Well I thought I knew it all, until I crashed into a wall, let me learn from my mistakes, and try to pick up the pieces.." Jamming galore, traditional bluegrass, remarkable soloing, and tremendous interior playing between the five. Transportive and highly recommended.
"When some things go wrong, take a moment to be thankful for the many things that are going right." the Buddha
Billy Strings
Somebody posted a couple of videos of Billy Strings on the only other website I go on last night. One was a version of a song called "Dust In A Baggie " and the other was a duet with Sierra Hull - who I had never heard of - called "What Does The Deep Sea Say". Clearly very, very, good.
