The Garcia Project at the Lincoln Theatre - Raleigh, NC

The Garcia Project returns to the Lincoln Theatre!
For many, a Jerry Garcia Band concert wasn’t just another night out—it was a place to breathe, reconnect, and leave feeling lighter than when you arrived. It was soulful, joyful, deeply human music that brought people together in a way that’s hard to describe until you’ve experienced it.
That’s what The Garcia Project is dedicated to preserving.
Rather than simply playing Jerry Garcia songs, The Garcia Project faithfully recreates actual Jerry Garcia Band concerts from 1976–1995—the songs, the arrangements, the grooves, the improvisation, and the spirit that made every era of the JGB unique.
Each performance is a journey through a real show from Jerry’s legendary solo career, celebrating the gospel, R&B, reggae, Motown, rock, and folk influences that made the Jerry Garcia Band such a transcendent live experience.
This isn’t nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake. It’s about stepping into the warmth, the healing tones, the joyful energy, and the communal feeling that made those concerts unforgettable.
Praised by longtime members of Jerry’s musical family—including Jackie LaBranch, who said “They remind me of what it was like singing with Jerry,” and by Grateful Dead publicist and historian Dennis McNally, who remarked that “If you closed your eyes, you’d think you were back in 1992 at the Warfield”—The Garcia Project has become one of the nation’s premier live celebrations of the Jerry Garcia Band experience.
If you’ve never seen The Garcia Project, this is more than a concert.
It’s an opportunity to step into the music, the feeling, and the healing spirit of a classic Jerry Garcia Band show.
