About this Event
If you’re a true disciple of the music of Jerry Garcia, then you’ll know that there are few deeper cuts than “Magnificent Sanctuary Band.” This bonus track on Cats Down Under the Stars is extremely obscure, yet if you’re lucky enough to hear it, you’ll find yourself instantly wrapped in the familiarity of its bubbly warmth and honeysuckle groove. In this sense, it’s the most appropriate name for a band like the one playing on this night at the Crazy Horse Saloon. Once their sound filters into your ears and you feel the infectious spirit of their vibe, it’s a full love surrender.
Coming to us from Humboldt County, this quartet is comprised of seasoned veterans who channel the essence of JGB with passionate verve through every note. You’ll be captivated by one of the finest singing drummers in the land, Darin Mitchell (Moo-Got-2/Velvet Sea), alongside the explosive keyboard stylings of Brian Swislow (Object Heavy), funky bassist, Norman Bradford (Wild Otis/Dead On) and extra tasty guitarist, Bryan Kraus (Grateful Getdown/Velvet Sea).
MSB brings the Jerry Garcia songbook to life with a rotating setlist drawing from the full spectrum of the band’s eras. You know these cats have their fingers on the pulse when including interpretations drawn from the holy grail, jazz-funk-soul project, Legion Of Mary and unique versions from this endless catalog. The band keeps you on your toes and can take you into the ethers at any given moment. We probably don’t have to tell you by now that this music carries an amplified impact when reverberating within the hallowed walls of the legendary Crazy Horse. We have no doubt Jerry will in the house!
