Afro Dead is a musical collective formed in 2022 by Aaron Feder to reimagine the music of theGrateful Dead in Afro-Pop styles, such as soukous, Afrobeat, high-life, reggae and more. He has been able to use his experience as founder and band leader of Alma Afrobeat Ensemble (four albums, four US tours) and co-founder of the record label Slow Walk Music (home to African music made in Spain) resulting in a Summer 2024 tour of the US and Canada, and a Fall 2024 tour of Spain.
For 2026 the band will feature the amazing Zimbabwean-American singer Lady Chi (Chiedza Kundidzora). She is a fixture in the Grateful Dead world, touring with Melvin Seals and JGB, as well as many other funk/soul projects.
Aaron Feder has been a lifelong participant in the Grateful Dead's music scene, having played and recorded with Grammy award winners Peter Rowan and Eric Krasno, as well as members of Phil Lesh and Friends, Greensky Bluegrass, Leftover Salmon, Everyone Orchestra and much more. Aaron's varied musical experiences has helped create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind musical project, mixing classic Americana compositions with danceable African grooves and a healthy dose of improvisation.
The band's version of Dark Star was featured on the compilation "The Music Plays the Band" alongside Dark Star Orchestra, Oteil Burbridge, ALO and many more.
