Melvin Seals and JGB Band
Melvin Seals, whose musical roots seep deep into gospel soil, has always been seeking that point where music merges with spirit, what he calls “church vibe.” He found it with Jerry Garcia over two decades ago, and he is finding it again in the new JGB. “Jerry Garcia Band was my absolute favorite band in the world and I’m honored to be able to carry on the torch and play homage to the heart and feel and tones. I’m honored to be playing with Melvin Seals who blew me away at every concert I went to. We’re all honored to be KEEPERS OF THE FLAME.”
REVIEW: COMES A TIME By Mark Miller BERKELEY, CA—The ultimate Jerry Garcia tribute concert also became a de facto Grateful Dead reunion and 40th anniversary celebration, or at least as close as anyone is going to get with the sold-out show on September 24 entitled Comes A Time: A Celebration of the Music and Spirit of Jerry Garcia…. “Take Jerry’s spirit home with you and do something good with it. That’s what this is all about.” >> Mickey Hart
