In fall 2009, Grateful Dead alumni Bob Weir and Phil Lesh debuted Furthur, their first one-on-one collaboration. (Previous efforts included other Dead members.)
Joining Bob and Phil are the drumming team of Jay Lane and Joe Russo (Benevento/Russo Duo), keyboardist Jeff Chimenti (RatDog, The Dead), and guitarist John Kadlecik (Dark Star Orchestra).
