About this Event

Dave Abear's A Very Jerry Band w/ Foggy Mountain Spaceship

Featuring guitarist Dave Hebert (AKA A'Bear), the former lead guitarist for Melvin Seals and JGB, performing the iconic catalogs of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band with his signature style. Opening the night is Foggy Mountain Spaceship, the cosmic trio that pushes the sonic limits of instruments with original compositions and unique twists on popular tunes, blending banjo melodies with rhythms that pulse like nebulae.

Guitarist and vocalist Dave Hebert (AKA A'Bear) is a major presence in the jam community, celebrated for his versatile command of rock, bluegrass, and the massive catalogs of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band. Hebert was the lead guitarist for Melvin Seals and JGB (2011–2016) and has performed alongside an impressive list of legends, including Grateful Dead members Vince Welnick and Tom Constanten, as well as Bill Nershi (String Cheese Incident) and Steve Kimock. Dave ABear’s A Very Jerry Band captures the authentic feel of the music while boldly injecting his signature style.

Forged in 2022 from the "cosmic convergence" of three veteran Colorado musicians, Foggy Mountain Spaceship has been pushing the sonic limits of their instruments on an astral journey ever since. The band is driven by Chris Elliott (5-String Banjo), Chris Sheldon (Drums), and Kyle Ussery (Bass/Multi-Instrumentalist). Their music blends ancient banjo melodies with rhythms that pulse like nebulae, creating cosmic twists on both original compositions and popular tunes. Having already shared the celestial stage with luminaries like Keller Williams and Sam Bush, Foggy Mountain Spaceship invites you to join their interstellar odyssey.
