Shakedown Street - Grateful Dead Tribute History
Shakedown Street is a vibrant tribute band that pays homage to the legendary Grateful Dead, a band known for their eclectic style and improvisational live performances that spanned over three decades. The Grateful Dead formed in 1965 and became a cornerstone of the counterculture movement in the United States. Their unique blend of rock, folk, bluegrass, blues, and jazz paved the way for a new kind of musical experience, characterized by extended jams and a loyal fan base known as 'Deadheads.' The band's live performances were legendary, often lasting over three hours and featuring a rotating setlist that kept fans coming back for more. After the band's dissolution in 1995 following the death of lead guitarist Jerry Garcia, many tribute bands emerged to keep the spirit of the Grateful Dead alive. Shakedown Street was formed by a group of passionate musicians who sought to recreate the magic of the Grateful Dead's live shows, bringing together fans of all ages to celebrate the music and culture that the original band inspired. Over the years, Shakedown Street has honed their craft, becoming known for their high-energy performances that capture the essence of a Grateful Dead concert, complete with extended improvisational segments and a deep connection with the audience.
