Dark Star Orchestra began rolling out its spring 2024 tour dates on Tuesday with the announcement of three new concerts.

The preeminent Grateful Dead tribute act will first head down to Asheville, NC for a two-night run at Salvage Station on May 17th and 18th. Immediately after, Dark Star Orchestra will split for the coast for a show in Wilmington, NC at the Greenfield Lake Amphitheatre on May 19th.

The following week, DSO will truck up to Ohio for the band’s annual Dark Star Jubilee on May 24th, 25th, and 26th in Thornville. The lineup for this year’s curated festival will feature Melvin Seals & JGB, Keller Williams‘ Grateful Gospel featuring guitarist John Kadlecik, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country, Doom Flamingo, Sam Grisman Project, and more. Finally, DSO’s initial slate of 2024 spring tour dates concludes with a trip to Wellston, MI to headline the new Hoxeyville Spring festival on June 1st. Dark Star Orchestra was brought in as a replacement headliner for Oteil & Friends, who bowed out of the festival following the announcement of additional Dead & Company shows at Sphere in Las Vegas.
