Band Beyond Description Celebrates the 50th Anniversary of 1976 at the Crazy Horse

News Flash: BBD will be sticking with the earlier start time of 8:30pm until football season starts back up in September.
If the Grateful Dead is your religion, then the Crazy Horse is your church when Third Thursday rolls around. Every month Jonny Mojo (Achilles Wheel), Gary Campus (Deadbeats) and Tim High (Tim High & the Mighty) host a cast of the finest musicians from around the region to conjure lightning in a bottle. BBD is a gathering point for everyone who wants to plug into the feeling of what it was like soaking in the otherworldly sounds at a Dead show while sharing the dance muse with the tribe. The music that bubbles forth from these nights captures the spontaneous, primal, orgasmic spirit that so many of us crave.
Jonny is a proverbial pied piper who guides the flock to the promised land with his incredibly versatile guitar playing and passion for the music coursing through his veins. He is one of the brightest lights among Nor Cal GD guitar specialists. He lives and breathes this music like a fish swimming in the sea. Gary emanates pure joy in every beat and gracefully molds his style to elevate the strengths of his collaborators. He’s been a rhythmic instigator in the region for 45 years now and is more fired up than ever. Nothing makes Tim happier than singing Grateful Dead songs as is evident by his assertive and heartfelt renditions of the classics as well as obscurities. Akin to Mickey Mantle switch-hitting, he transmits the fire and brimstone of Bob and the raw emotion of Jerry.
50 years ago, the Grateful Dead came off of their nearly two-year hiatus as a reinvented band. Mickey Hart was back in the fold, several old songs were dusted off the shelf, a few new songs were taking flight and the band was playing at a more relaxed pace. We are excited to honor this anniversary by bringing in a full EIGHT-PIECE lineup which will play an obscure show from June ’76 with an EXTRAORDINARY setlist! The guests are the “dancing drummer,” Anna Elva (China Dolls, Marcus Rezak, etc. etc.), the “ultimate Bobby” Zach Jones (Lovin’ Dead), Jeff Quigley (Lovin’ Dead, Like a Rose) on keys, Mike Meagher on bass and Jacquelynn Kolenko on vocals. This show will have it all from the punchy rockers to the slow burn ballads to the disco dance party to the spacey, psychedelic excursions. Buckle up and take the ride!
