Jazz Is Dead is set to continue its 25th Anniversary Tour with the “Darkness Falls & Seasons Change” Tour which includes a stop at Patchogue Theatre on Nov. 29. Renowned for creative and intricate jazz interpretations of Grateful Dead songs, Jazz is Dead will also finish off its commemoration of Wake of the Flood with several shows in August.
Created in 1998 by former Santana and Weather Report bassist Alphonso Johnson, the group has released four albums throughout its lifespan. Johnson is joined by Steve Kimock (guitar), Pete Lavezzoli (drums), and Bobby Lee Rodgers (guitar). Together, the group not only expertly honors the artistic tradition of The Dead, but also reinvents classic tracks to provide an unparalleled listening experience.
In familiar Dead fashion, Jazz Is Dead looks to put together varied, unique, and diverse set lists for each performance as part of Wake of the Flood. The tour will feature two performances at each venue, with shows starting back up on August 1 in San Francisco, California.
The “Darkness Falls and Season Change” Tour is set to feature 13 shows, opening on Nov. 29 in Patchogue and closing on Dec. 15 in Columbia, South Carolina. Visit here for more details and information.
