Skeleton Crewe Quintet
A special outdoor concert by Skeleton Crewe Quintet, one of the most acclaimed Dead-oriented super groups in the nation, performed at Rosebud Ranch to celebrate Tyler Blue's 50th birthday. This is an all-ages event set in a natural amphitheater just five miles from downtown Nevada City, near the Old 49 Bridge on the South Yuba River.
The band blends original compositions (many of them Robert Hunter/Rob Barraco collaborations), reimagined Grateful Dead favorites, traditional Hawaiian influences, psychedelic Americana, and jazz fusion into an expansive, improvisational experience.
Lineup:
- Rob Barraco - Keyboards & vocals (Dark Star Orchestra, Phil Lesh & Friends, The Dead)
- Barry Sless - Pedal Steel, electric guitar & vocals (Bobby Weir and Wolf Bros, David Nelson Band, Phil Lesh and Friends, MoonAlice)
- Stephen Inglis - Slack Key Guitar, electric guitar & vocals (Billy Kreutzmann, Dennis Kamakahi)
- Pete Sears - Bass (Jefferson Starship, Hot Tuna, Phil Lesh & Friends, David Nelson Band, MoonAlice)
- Jay Lane - Drums & vocals (Dead & Company, Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros, Ratdog)
Music starts at 7:30 PM and ends by 11:00 PM. A bonfire will be roaring throughout the evening.
