Sure, the CDC just announced a return to normalcy for most fully-vaccinated people, but we all know that nature hasn’t fully healed unless members of the Grateful Dead are on tour. Well, fret no more, because Dead & Company, the legacy act that performs with John Mayer, has just unveiled 31 new tour dates that take place this summer and fall.
Dead & Company are comprised of original Dead Heads Bob Weir (guitar), Mickey Hart (drums), and Bill Kreutzmann (drums), alongside relative newcomers John Mayer (guitar), Oteil Burbridge (bass), and Jeff Chimenti (keyboard). The group performed its first concert in 2015, and over the intervening years it’s been on the road a surprising amount, considering the obligations of some of its more famous members.
This trek looks quite a bit different than their pandemic-cancelled 2020 tour. It kicks off in Raleigh, North Carolina on August 16th and includes multi-night stands at Wrigley Field and Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater in Colorado. There are also two performances at Xfinity Center and one at The Xfinity Center (God bless our corporate overlords), and it closes with three nights of jamming at Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
Tickets go on sale Friday, May 21st, at noon local time through the Ticketmaster website. Check out the full schedule below, and keep an eye out for ticket deals here.
