DeadRoots (online event): Exploring the Folk and Blues Roots of the Grateful Dead

DeadRoots (online event): Exploring the Folk and Blues Roots of the Grateful Dead

I’m very happy to be presenting this program virtually for The Center For The Performing Arts in Carmel Indiana because that means YOU can attend too!

$12 admission, presented via Zoom (ticket link below).

ABOUT DEADROOTS: Though generally associated with the 1960s counterculture, rock legends the Grateful Dead first built their repertoire on classic folk, blues and jug band music, and they introduced generations of fans to the nooks, crannies, branches and offshoots of American roots music like perhaps no other act of their size and influence. They learned songs from itinerant street musicians, covered songs by blues legends and country stars, and packed a gumbo of musical styles into their own canon of beloved original songs.

Join musician and teaching artist Dave Ruch to explore the rich well of American music that inspired the Grateful Dead. Deeply researched and brimming with great music and stories, the DeadRoots show is performed on acoustic and electric guitars, mandolin, banjo, jaw harp and more.
