No two Grateful Dead concerts are ever alike, but the point where they fully diverge from reality as we know it is often the same. Five songs into the second set, the band sets their instruments down and all non-rhythm section members — in its current iteration as Dead & Company, that includes longtime frontman and rhythm guitarist Bob Weir, lead guitarist and vocalist John Mayer, and keyboard wizard Jeff Chimenti — exit the stage. Electronic music loops begin to play as the band’s two drummers and bassist, collectively known as the Rhythm Devils, engage in an improvisational ritual featuring...

While the media has always been quick to compare Phish to the Grateful Dead, there’s perhaps no artist who influenced Trey Anastasio more than Frank Zappa. The Phish guitarist witnessed several Frank Zappa concerts and a 1988 show in Burlington, Vermont included what Anastasio has described as “the greatest guitar solo I’ve ever seen a human play.”

It’s time to head “Into The Mystic.”

From Oct. 12-26, Van Morrison will return to the stage for a brief seven-concert run of shows in New Hampshire and California.

The short trek comes on the heels of the 78-year-old Rock Hall of Famer’s busy 2023 when he released not one but two studio albums — “Moving On Skiffle” and “Accentuate The Positive.”

On Sept. 27, he’ll release his 46th (!) studio album “Arrangements and Duets,” which “features a selection of unreleased material that Morrison has decided to share with his fans rather than leaving it stored away,” according to Maverick County.

Although he’s shockingly prolific,...

It’s t-t-t-t-t-tickin’ away sings Styx‘ Tommy Shaw on the band’s 1981 hit “Too Much Time on My Hands.” The Knack‘s 1979 hit “My Sharona” caused more controversy over its’ lustful subject matter than its stuttering M-m-m-my Sharona, and David Bowie even staggered on C-c-c-hanges on his Hunky Dory classic.

When Marty Robbins and his backing band entered their Nashville studio session on an unexpecting day in 1960, they likely weren’t expecting to run into any major recording hiccups—at the very least, they certainly couldn’t have anticipated a technical failure that later defined rock and roll.

More than two  decades after the Postal Service’s first — and so far only—album, Give Up, became a surprise platinum-selling hit, Sylvan Esso remixed one of its singles at the group’s request. The duo, which formed a decade after Give Up’s release and has tiptoed in the Postal Service’s footsteps with their approach to electropop and indie rock, has put a new spin on “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight.”Ben Gibbard Sings the National Anthem at Seattle Mariners Home Opener

As revered as Neil Young has been over the course of his career, he has not had much success on the pop singles chart. Outside of his work with Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, he has reached the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 just three times. The first of those Top-40 hits was “Only Love Can Break Your Heart,” which was the second single from Young’s 1970 album After the Gold Rush. It only went as high as No. 33.

The Grateful Dead has just announced their comprehensive new live box set, Friend Of The Devils: April 1978. This 19-disc set, which will be released on September 20, returns to the post-hiatus era, when songs like "Drums" and "Space" were establishing themselves as second-set traditions. Betty Cantor-Jackson originally recorded the shows, and engineer Jeffrey Norman restored and mastered them. The deluxe edition contains 19 CDs, a book with Steve Silverman's liner notes, and photographs by James Anderson, Bob Minkin, and others.
