The fine art of bluegrass and the music of the Grateful Dead have been linked before the Dead even existed. Any fan knows that bluegrass was the foundation of Jerry Garcia’s lifelong commitment to his craft. He would later revisit it in 1973 with the short-lived, yet very influential project, Old and in the Way. It finally came back around in the early 90’s when Garcia-Grisman was formed. Even when bluegrass wasn’t at the forefront for Jerry, it was always a factor just beneath the surface.Grassomoxoa (a clever nod to the 1969 GD album, Aoxomoxoa) is comprised of four men who are extremely passionate about bluegrass and the Grateful Dead. The idea of merging these two entities is nothing new. However, the way in which they approach it instills the songs with a fresh and vibrant energy. Isaac Cantor (banjo) and Scotty Brown (bass) are old friends who embody the sort of freewheeling spirit that Jerry himself held dear. These longtime collaborators are the anchors of this project. On this occasion, they have assembled an extra special lineup featuring buzzy Bay Area artist at large, Alex Jordan on guitar, and original Dusty Green Bones mandolin player, Dustin Brown.
Prepare for a deep immersion into the roots of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia songbooks. You can count on a magical combination of both traditional string music and progressive jam explorations. It will be just like a late-night picking session around the fire.
