This is the world's only drag Grateful Dead tribute band, started in Tennessee in 2023 as a response to anti-drag legislation, and that origin is the whole point of the night. The group delivers the classic two-set, three-hour Dead show with powerhouse vocals, and each stop features local drag and burlesque performers while raising money for LGBTQ organizations.
Rolling Stone and the San Francisco Chronicle have both covered the project since its first sold-out show. The Arvada Center stages it outdoors in the west metro, where a night like this almost never lands.
