About this Event
Phil Lesh and Friends
Famed for his three-decade stint as the bassist with the Grateful Dead, Phil Lesh can trace the long, strange trip of his life to Berkeley, where he was born in 1940. Rooted in jazz and classical performance, Lesh also studied avant-garde composition and electronic music before joining his friend Jerry Garcia's band, the Warlocks, in 1965, Soon rechristened the Grateful Dead, Lesh remained with the group for the remainder of its existence, becoming a fan favorite as much for his distinctive bass playing as for his single-minded devotion to the Dead's music and fanbase. After Garcia's death in 1995, Lesh reunited with bandmates Bob Weir and Mickey Hart as the Other Ones. He has also since toured as Phil Lesh & Friends: a group that gives new life to the Grateful Dead’s material by bringing in new styles and innovations, while, at the same time, still remaining loyal to the original music and, of course, the fans.
