Watch Phil Lesh Join Gordon, Russo, Anastasio, Benevento (G.R.A.B.), On This Day In ’06

With the exciting announcement of Benevento Russo Duo’s return in early 2017, we couldn’t help but pay homage to one of that band’s most exciting tours, which began today in 2006. The duo brought on Phish members Mike Gordon and Trey Anastasio, calling themselves G.R.A.B., and touring for all to enjoy their elite musical fusion.

On the anniversary of G.R.A.B.’s tour debut, watch some great footage of G.R.A.B. with legendary Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh. Lesh joined in for a rockin’ version of “Casey Jones,” backed by an all-star ensemble. Of course, Joe Russo would go on to join Lesh in Furthur, and Anastasio would link up with Furthur at LOCKN’ in 2013. Lots of history here.
