Drawing on the wide-ranging influences of his five-decade career, Don Was brings his Pan-Detroit Ensemble to the stage to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead’s landmark album Terrapin Station, presenting the album in its entirety. Building on Don’s long musical association with Bobby Weir, the Ensemble brings its own musical personality to the Dead’s music, offering a fresh interpretation through its distinctive blend of steamy jazz, juke-joint blues, and loose-limbed funk. The concert will also feature music from the band’s debut album, Groove in the Face of Adversity, which channels the soul of the Motor City through a sound both timeless and deeply personal.
