Watch Keller Williams and Grateful Grass Jam on “Scarlet Begonias” in Denver

Keller Williams, the jam journeyman assembled his Grateful Grass in Denver last night. Keller and a slew of friends treated the Ogden Theater to Dead classics, newgrass style.

Keller was joined by a who’s who in the string scene including Keith Moseley (String Cheese Incident), Andy Thorn (Leftover Salmon), Zeb Bowles (Hot Buttered Rum), Andy Thacker & Jay Starling (Love Cannon) and Jason Hann (String Cheese Incident).

Among the Dead tunes they jammed on was a break-neck rendition of “Scarlet Begonias.”

Listen to Spafford’s Massive “Eminence Front” Jam in Denver – 10/26/2019 AUD

Spafford, the jam all-stars hailing from Arizona were at the Ogden Theater in Denver this past weekend. Spafford’s website bills the band’s live performance as an “improvisational experience” and Denver got a clear cut definition of what that means.

The two sets that Spafford played clocked in at over two and half hours with just 14 songs on the setlist. Some of the tunes, like the opening cover of The Who’s “Eminence Front” clocked in over 30 minutes. Spafford went the distance with the Neil Young tune “War of Man” in the second set.

SET ONE
Eminence Front (The Who)>
Leave the Light On
Electric Taco Stand
Fire Water Burn (Bloodhound Gang)

SET TWO

Listen to Medeski Scofield Martin and Wood’s Second Night at the Ogden – 3/31/2018 Full Show AUD

Medeski, Martin and Wood were joined by guitar wizard, John Scofield for two nights at the Ogden Theater in Denver, CO last week. The first show was a stone groove and second night was as well.

As with the first show, there were some technical difficulties with a brief power outage, but it didn’t affect the show. What did was the crowd noise which is audible on the recording. Thanks to Lucas Lorenz for fighting the good fight and getting the recording of the show for us to enjoy!

The setlist was similar to the first night and had a couple of covers including Ray Charles’ “I Got a Woman” and Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love” among others.

Listen to Greensky Bluegrass Jam on Bruce Springsteen’s “Atlantic City” in Denver

Greensky Bluegrass just finished up a three-night run at the Ogeden Theater in Denver, CO. During night two of the run, the newgrass act invited Andy Hall from the Infamous Stringdusters out to play the dobro on a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “Atlantic City.”

Greensky and Andy Hall stretched the cover out and put a beautiful bluegrass-spin on the Bosses’ classic tune. As they do with Dead tunes, Greensky Bluegrass does “Atlantic City” justice.

Thanks to gerry gladu for the recording. You can stream the entire three-night run thanks to him on archive.org.
