Bob Weir has teamed with Don Was and RatDog/Primus drummer Jay Lane for a new group they’re calling Bob Weir and Wolf Bros. The trio will introduce themselves to jam fans when they head out on a North American tour this fall.
The 19-date trek will take the group to will open October 16th in Reno, Nevada before taking them to Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Missoula, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and New York. The only venue to receive a two-night stand from the band will be Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York. A press release says attendees can expect to hear some Grateful Dead tunes “among others.”
“For a while now I’ve been itchin’ to explore our songs in a trio setting. An upright bass, my acoustic or electric guitar and a drummer,” Weir said in a statement. “We did some rehearsals this past spring and it was big fun—and that’s the whole idea. We were kickin’ around Dead songs as well as tunes from my back pages. I’m pretty sure we’re gonna have a big adventure with this…”
