THE GARCIA PROJECT
The Garcia Project is the only nationally touring tribute that performs full, classic Jerry Garcia Band set lists from 1976-1995! Not a Grateful Dead tribute, but a tribute to Jerry Garcia’s beloved other band, The Jerry Garcia Band, which toured in between Grateful Dead tours, and played original songs as well as great covers from many genres, including rock, Motown, gospel, bluegrass and more. “The Garcia Project is a must-see for anyone who had the good fortune of seeing Jerry’s band live. I was lucky enough to share the JGB experience with Jerry, John Kahn, Maria Muldaur, Keith and Donna. Being on stage with Mik, Kat, Dan and the crew is the closest thing to the original. They are Jerry’s kindred spirits when it comes to making music. Even if you never saw JGB live, you can see and hear their spirit at a Garcia Project performance.” – Buzz Buchanan, Drummer for The Jerry Garcia Band 1977-1978 Often called the “DSO of JGB” by fans, The Garcia Project’s performances are based on actual set lists performed by The Jerry Garcia Band. All of their performances are recreations of full classic Jerry Garcia Band shows from 1976 to 1995. For anyone that never had a chance to experience the Jerry Garcia Band or for fans that want to relive a classic show, The Garcia Project delivers. The founding members of The Garcia Project got to see the Jerry Garcia Band live on tour for many years, and the sound and feelings are deeply embedded in them. With precise arrangements and the proper instrumentation and feel for the various eras, The Garcia Project faithfully channels and projects the feelings, emotions and music that propelled the Jerry Garcia Band and the fans through many years of musical bliss. It’s about family, soul searching, rejoicing, contemplating, celebrating, seeking truth and loving one another.

THE Z3 – Funky & Energetic … In the spirit of Frank Zappa
Frank’s cynicism, sarcasm, and biting social criticism isn’t recreated, it’s pointed at the present, and it still works! Who is The Z3?Tim Palmieri (Lotus, The Breakfast) – Guitar, VocalsBill Carbone (Max Creek, Melvin Sparks) – Drums, VocalsBeau Sasser (Kung Fu) – Organ, keys, vocals The Z3 are and aren’t a Zappa tribute. They do play only the music of Frank Zappa. They don’t try to recreate it exactly as it happened in the ‘60s, 70s, or 80s. Instead, they orchestrate it for their funky organ trio vibe, with an energy and groove that carries it into the 20-teens. They embrace the cynicism, sarcasm, and biting social criticism for which FZ was famous, but they point it squarely at 2024. It’s Funky Takes on Frank in the present tense.Organist Beau Sasser and drummer Bill Carbone discovered a shared passion for Frank Zappa while touring together in the band of guitarist Melvin Sparks. They daydreamed of a trio in the organ-funk style that performed nothing but Zappa–but what third musician could serve as the missing link to bridge the two genres was a mystery. When guitarist/vocalist Tim Palmieri, a diehard Zappa fan, ended up on a string of regular Wednesday night funk gigs with The Beau Sasser Trio in November 2011, the Z3 was born.
