Dark Star Orchestra

On March 3, 2012, Dark Star Orchestra delivered a vibrant performance at Revolution Live in Fort Lauderdale, showcasing their unique take on the Grateful Dead's extensive catalog. Just prior to this recording, in 2011, they released 'The Closing of Winterland,' an album that's often noted for its demonstration of the band's commitment to capturing the spirit of live Grateful Dead shows. This period marked a significant time in their career, as they were deeply engaged in reimagining classic tracks while simultaneously connecting with both long-time fans and new audiences. This particular performance features a dynamic medley of 'Playin' In The Band' leading into 'Terrapin Station,' which not only exemplifies their improvisational prowess but also celebrates the intricate musical journey that fans cherish. It's a vivid reminder of why they’ve become a beloved tribute within the jam band scene.
