This summer signifies a change for Grateful Dead fans. It’s the first in many years without a clear focal point for the band. The question arises: where do Deadheads now go from here?
Though the Grateful Dead played their final concert in 1995, their music and folklore continue to inspire new generations. The Dead’s influence has sparked ongoing interest among both musicians and fans.
NPR Music’s Isabella Gomez Sarmiento and Felix Contreras explored this topic, traveling to discover what lies ahead for the Deadhead community. Their journey aligns with ‘Days Between’, a period from August 1, marking Jerry Garcia’s birth, to August 9, the anniversary of his passing.
During this time, a series of stories, interviews, and podcasts will be released. These will delve into the enduring appeal of the Grateful Dead and how fans and musicians plan to preserve and advance the band’s legacy.
