Dark Star Orchestra
Celebrating their 20th anniversary!
Why see Dark Star Orchestra?
CElebrating OVER 20 YEARS!
The Grateful Dead have been resurrected in the form of Dark Star Orchestra. Formed in 1997, this tribute band came up with the novel idea of recreating complete sets from The Grateful Dead's gigantic list of concerts. They adapt their playing and sound depending on what era of Dead they're tackling on the night, and while they slavishly recreate the sound of the band down to the minutest detail, they also embark on epic improvisations that would make their heroes proud.
Dark Star Orchestra are now well on their way to equalling the number of shows that The Grateful Dead themselves played during their 30 year history, and are now celebrating over 20 years of performing!

CC Rider
CC Rider was one of the highlights of the evening. The band did a superb job & took the song to new heights. The leads this night in this song were outstanding I wish I had a version to listen to.. Loved the show wasn't crazy about the setlist of songs but the band was great! ... Read more

Great show
Saw them at South Shore Music Circus in Cohasset MA. There is not a bad seat in this venue in the round. Had seats on aisle 8 rows back. Sound was great but I wish vocals were a little louder. Song choices were perfect. Wish they came to this area more often. Good show. ... Read more

Talent wasted on a bad Set list
This incredible musical talent threw themselves into the Dead’s most testosterone-soaked songs. Even the tenderness of Morning Dew climaxed to too much of a hard jam. Loved the female vocalists and her harp. ... Read more
