Wake the Dead

Arcata Playhouse

World’s only Celtic Grateful Dead jam band So when seven top Bay Area musicians realized they shared as deep a love for the songs of the Grateful Dead as they did for traditional Celtic tunes, some brand-new music sprang up and started partying as the band Wake the Dead. Wake the Dead is a romp that flows seamlessly from rock grooves to hot Irish reels, and from haunting airs to achingly beautiful melodies familiar to Deadheads everywhere. Groove jams to keep the tie-dye swirling. Vocal harmonies that float like clouds. The music takes off, and the band follows, grinning all the way. These aren’t worlds colliding—they’re worlds meshing, coalescing—creating a whole new world of possibility, and true to the spirits of the Grateful dead and the eternally hopeful Celts. Wake the Dead bands together seven of the best-known and most respected players in the west that have been wowing audiences from San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium to the Oregon Country Fair for two decades.
