The Grateful Web is thrilled to bring you a live-streamed performance of the Garcia Birthday Band (GBB), straight from McMenamin's Mission Theater & Pub in Portland, Oregon. GBB isn’t just a Grateful Dead cover band – they’re a living, breathing celebration of the Grateful Dead’s musical legacy and a vital heartbeat of the Pacific Northwest's Deadhead community.
About the Garcia Birthday Band
For over 20 years, GBB has enchanted audiences with their dynamic, improvisational approach to the Grateful Dead’s repertoire. Far more than a tribute act, they’re a cornerstone of the modern Grateful Dead universe, blending individual artistry with decades of shared experience to craft something truly unique.
GBB’s performances transcend boundaries, embracing all eras and catalogs of the Dead’s career. With some of Oregon’s finest live music veterans at the helm, the band takes audiences on a musical and spiritual journey, where the line between the stage and crowd blurs into a shared, transformative experience.
Their fanbase – a thriving carnival of joy and potential – has come to expect the unexpected, where every note invites exploration and community. Whether you're a seasoned Deadhead or just discovering the magic, Garcia Birthday Band feels like home.
You may recognize members of GBB from projects like Nine Days Wonder, Cubensis, Shafty, Turkey Bouillon Mafia, The Campfire Boys, Deadhenge, Shadow of Sound, The Buds of May, The Ike Willis Band, Dead Sessions, and Dark Matter.
