After kicking off The Clubhouse Sessions a couple weeks back and launching the highly anticipated Darkstarathon earlier this week, Phil Lesh and his friends are back with Episode 2 of The Clubhouse Sessions presented by Terrapin Clubhouse.
Once again joined by new friends, frequent collaborators, and old Terrapin Crossroads regulars including Daniel Donato, Holly Bowling, Nicki Bluhm, Grahame Lesh, and John Molo, the multigenerational outfit led by the Grateful Dead bassist delivers a set of five Dead staples live in studio—among them, “Tennessee Jed”, “Row Jimmy”, “Ship Of Fools”, “Black Throated Wind”, and “Me & My Uncle”.
Terrapin Crossroads closed its doors in 2021 after serving as a home base for Lesh, who became averse to touring in recent years due to his advanced age. For nearly a decade after opening in 2012, the intimate club provided a hub for touring acts, with whom Lesh would regularly sit in, and hosted many memorable collaborations and community events.
Lesh announced the launch of Terrapin Clubhouse with a cryptic onstage announcement in November 2023, later detailing three new YouTube channels dedicated to the project—Terrapin Clubhouse, Clubhouse Sessions, and Darkstarathon—as well as a new podcast, The Phil Zone. Since then, he has stayed mostly quiet, with the first episode of The Clubhouse Sessions marking the first official Terrapin Clubhouse release, followed shortly after by the first Darkstarathon session.
Watch episode two of Phil Lesh’s Clubhouse Sessions featuring Grahame Lesh, Nicki Bluhm, Daniel Donato, John Molo, and Holly Bowling below, and stay tuned for more Terrapin Clubhouse updates.
