Dark Star Orchestra will wind down 2024 with a fall tour of the Northeast followed by the band’s coveted “Cosmic New Year’s Run.” The prominent Grateful Dead tribute act will return to The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY for a pair of year-ending shows on December 30th and 31st.
DSO bookended its new tour dates with trips to The Cap, beginning on November 15th and 16th. The 11 newly announced concerts also include shows in Poughkeepsie, NY (11/17), another Capitol Theatre in Rome, NY (11/20), Binghamton, NY (11/21), Boston (11/22), New Haven, CT (11/23), Pittsburgh (11/26), Jim Thorpe, PA (11/27), and finally two nights at the Paramount Theatre in Huntington, NY (11/29, 11/30). Then in December, Dark Star Orchestra will mount a four-night New Year’s Eve run beginning at The Anthem in Washington, D.C. on December 28th followed by Franklin Music Hall in Philadelphia on the 29th and two nights at The Cap.
“In my opinion, The Cap is the most iconic East Coast Grateful Dead-oriented venue,” Dark Star Orchestra keyboardist Rob Barraco said. “Peter Shapiro has put together a temple to all things Grateful Dead housed in a holy place of Dead history. The production is second to none. DSO treasures our shows there. New Year’s is becoming a hallowed tradition. The addition of another weekend means more variety from us show-wise.”
