This fan-favorite Grateful Dead tribute band captures the true essence of a Dead show — from soulful improvisations to the euphoric connection that only this music can create.

The group has earned a reputation as one of the premier Dead tribute bands in the country, dedicated to recreating the authentic live experience that made the Dead a cultural phenomenon. The band’s commitment to musical authenticity has taken them to iconic stages including Garcia’s at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY — where they were the first band chosen for residency . They’ve shared stages with rock legends like Santana , Phil Lesh , and Melvin Seals , and even headlined the 50th Woodstock Anniversary at the original Yasgur’s Farm. Fans can expect an evening filled with songs from every era of the Grateful Dead’s 30-year journey — with dynamic jams, soulful harmonies, and spontaneous musical moments that make every Stella Blue’s show unique.
