About the Artists
The Rock and Roll Playhouse
The Rock and Roll Playhouse is a group project built around live rock and pop concerts designed for younger listeners and their families. In New York City, their shows have a regular home at venues such as White Eagle Hall, where they reframe familiar catalogs in a format that keeps the band onstage and the audience involved.
Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead emerged from the late-1960s American rock scene with a sound rooted in electric blues, folk, and improvisation. Their early catalog, including a 1967 studio debut for a major label, helped formalize an approach that treated songs as frameworks rather than fixed scripts.
