Dark Star Orchestra

In July 2013, Dark Star Orchestra brought their distinctive Grateful Dead-inspired sound to the Gathering of the Vibes Music Festival, performing 'New Minglewood Blues.' Just a year prior, in 2012, they released the album 'Road Trip,' a live collection that highlighted their ability to recreate the essence of Grateful Dead concerts with a modern twist. This live recording perfectly encapsulates their energetic vibe during that period. Interestingly, the band has gained a reputation for their meticulous attention to detail in reinterpreting classic Grateful Dead shows, making them a beloved act at festivals. Their performances, infused with improvisation and a deep respect for the original material, resonate with both long-time Deadheads and new fans alike.
