Dead Roses: Todd Bugbee’s Dead Roses: SF Bay’s badass Grateful Dead tribute: Sometimes funky, a little trippy, always full of energy and extremely danceable. Nate Beltz, Preston Barnes, Stephanie Mandela, James Miller, Tim Baker and Todd Bugbee. + Grassomoxoa: The fine art of bluegrass and the music of the Grateful Dead have been linked before the Dead even existed. Any fan knows that bluegrass was the foundation of Jerry Garcia’s lifelong commitment to his craft. He would later revisit it in 1973 with the short-lived, yet very influential project, Old and in the Way. It finally came back around in the early 90’s when Garcia-Grisman was formed. Even when bluegrass wasn’t at the forefront for Jerry, it was always a factor just beneath the surface. Grassomoxoa (a clever nod to the 1969 GD album, Aoxomoxoa) is comprised of four men who are extremely passionate about bluegrass and the Grateful Dead.
