Dark Star Orchestra

On July 30, 2015, Dark Star Orchestra performed 'Franklin's Tower' at the Gathering of the Vibes in Bridgeport, CT, showcasing their deep connection to the Grateful Dead's legacy. Prior to this live recording, DSO released their album 'All Good Things' in 2014, which highlights their creative interpretations and tribute to the iconic band. By this point in their career, DSO was well-established, known for their authentic recreations of Grateful Dead concerts while also weaving in original compositions. The Gathering of the Vibes was an important gathering for fans of jam band music, celebrating community and creativity—values that resonate deeply within DSO's ethos. This performance not only captured the energy of the festival but also reaffirmed DSO's role as torchbearers of a musical tradition that continues to inspire generations.
