THIS SHOW IS NOW SOLD OUT!!
Melvin Seals has been a powerful presence in the music industry for more than 30 years, with a long-established reputation as a performer, recording artist and producer. Dubbed “Master of the Universe” by Jerry Garcia himself, Seals is most revered for his powerful, high-spirited, Hammond B-3 organ and keyboards in the Jerry Garcia Band, spinning his magic for 18 years. In doing so, he helped pioneer and define what has now become “jam band music.” From blues to funk to rock to jazz, Melvin Seals serves up a tasty mix with a little R&B and gospel thrown in to spice things up.
Seals and other members of the Jerry Garcia Band carry on the spirit of the band today in tribute under the slightly renamed JGB Band. They bring an intuitive, expressive style with soul, spontaneity and remarkable chops to the table. The unique combination of Dave Hebert’s guitar and vocals, Pete Lavezzoli’s hearty drums, and Seal’s magic on the organ and keyboards results in a most satisfying blend of natural organic grooves and an exciting, often psychedelic, musical journey that changes nightly.
