“My wife and I have really gotten behind the Dark Star Orchestra as a truly realistic Grateful Dead experience, from the people hanging out outside the theater, the ambiance, the mood… The MUSIC. Close your eyes, and you're back in 1977.”
Among the many who pay tribute to the Grateful Dead legend, the Dark Star Orchestra claims a rightfully earned reputation of being the best, performing iconic hits such as “Eyes of the World” and “Friend of the Devil” with utmost reverence.
For over 25 years, they have toured in seven countries, entertaining old and new fans alike in more than 3,100 electrifying shows. Though a constantly evolving lineup, the band currently enlists the talents of Rob Barraco, Rob Eaton, Dino English, Rob Koritz, Lisa Mackey, Jeff Mattson, and Skip Vangelas. Painstakingly, artistically, and faithfully, they recreate the Grateful Dead concert experience in exact historical detail, drawing from eras-worth of catalogs. They also perform improvised setlists from time to time, giving oldheads new musical journeys to look forward to. During their career’s peak, DSO featured guest performances from Grateful Dead founding members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, and Bill Kreutzmann, as well as notable successors Tom Constanten, Donna Jean Godchaux-MacKay, and Vince Welnick.
