Phil Lesh Adds Preservation Hall Jazz Band To Impressive Lineup For Friday’s Show At The Cap

This week, Phil Lesh is bringing an impressive lineup of Friends for a two-night run at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, across May 26th and 27th. The run constitutes the Grateful Dead’s bassist’s 68th and 69th shows since 2012, and is bound to be something special. The historical venue has just announced the addition of New Orleans’ Preservation Hall Jazz Band to join Phil & Friends on Friday, May 26th.

Phil’s Friday “Friends” include Karl Denson (The Rolling Stones, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe), Robert Randolph, Jackie Greene, Ross James, Jason Crosby, Tony Leone, and Alex Koford.

On Saturday night, Karl Denson, Robert Randolph, Ross James, Jason Crosby, Tony Leone, and Alex Koford will return to the Capitol with Lesh, along with Neal Casal subbing in for Jackie Green on guitar. Tickets for the show at the legendary venue are available here.
