Earlier this month, founding Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir announced a 19-date fall tour with a new project, Bob Weir and Wolf Bros. Today, due to popular demand, the band has announced additional performances during their stops in Chicago (11/1), Boston (11/15), and New York (11/19).
Register before 10 p.m. ET today, Monday, August 13th, to become eligible for a Verified Fan Presale for the newly added shows. Presale begins Wednesday, August 15 at 10am local time.
According to the initial announcement, Bob Weir and Wolf Bros will see Weir “exploring songs of the Grateful Dead and more in a trio setting” along with a pair of seasoned collaborators, drummer Jay Lane (Furthur, RatDog) and legendary musician, producer, and current Blue Note Records president Don Was. The announcement of this new project and tour come on the heels of the news that Dead & Company‘s upcoming performances at LOCKN’ will be the band’s final shows of 2018.
The tour will kick off in Reno, NV on October 16th and make stops in various markets across the country, including shows in Los Angeles, CA; Santa Barbara, CA; Portland, OR; Seattle, WA; Missoula, MT; Salt Lake City, UT; Albuquerque, NM; and Denver, CO. Following a Halloween night performance and the newly added 11/1 show at The Chicago Theatre in Chicago, IL, Bob Weir and Wolf Bros will continue eastward, stopping in Nashville, TN; Louisville, KY; and Syracuse, NY before a two-night stand at Port Chester, NY’s storied Capitol Theatre (11/9–11/10).
