Dark Star Orchestra

On March 3, 2012, Dark Star Orchestra performed at Revolution Live in Fort Lauderdale, showcasing their deep connection to the Grateful Dead's legacy. Prior to this live recording, they had released their album 'The Company We Keep' in 2011, an album that featured their distinctly vibrant interpretations of classic Grateful Dead tracks. This performance, like many of their shows, relied heavily on improvisation, capturing the spontaneous essence of live music. Interestingly, Dark Star Orchestra prides itself on recreating complete Grateful Dead concerts, but they are also known for their unique takes on the iconic band's songs, blending homage with their own flair. This particular show highlights their ability to weave seamless transitions between pieces, embodying that beloved jam band spirit fans cherish. As they jammed through 'Space' into 'Saint of Circumstance,' it’s a reminder of the deep emotional highs and reflective moments these concerts can bring.
