For these special performances in Atlanta the band will once again be joined by The Wolfpack along with Barry Sless on pedal steel. Each night the ensemble will perform a completely unique set featuring hits from the expansive Grateful Dead catalogue, Bobby’s solo albums and more. Stanford professor and composer Dr. Giancarlo Aquilanti will provide original orchestration. These orchestral performances originally debuted with a successful, sold-out run alongside the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center earlier this fall.
The band recently released Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros: Live in Colorado Vol. 2, which debuted at #1 on the Americana/Folk album chart. Pitchfork raves of the LP, “he stages some of the most beloved material in the Grateful Dead’s catalog with the passion and reverence of a couple spending their 50th anniversary looking back on their wedding day,” while American Songwriter says, “Weir and the Wolfs manage to stay true to the template while also taking the music beyond any original incarnation by reinventing them in ways that find imagination and intrigue well stirred in a contemporary context.” Listen HERE.
The first installment, Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros: Live in Colorado, was released in February to critical acclaim. Both volumes feature songs recorded live at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater in June 2021. The shows include Greg Leisz on pedal steel along with The Wolfpack.
Weir recently stopped by “Watch What Happens Live,” an appearance of which Vulture said, “he just might be the best guest Andy Cohen’s late-night show has ever witnessed.” Watch HERE.
