Phil Lesh Reveals Friends For Upcoming Shows

Phil Lesh is off the bus in 2014 besides shows at his own Terrapin Crossroads venues and gigs he’ll play as part of his exclusive deal with Relix/Jambands.com publisher and impresario Pete Shapiro. The big question was who Lesh would bring aboard as “Friends” for his shows at Shapiro’s venues and today we have our answer as to April’s “friends.”

Shapiro’s Relix.com has revealed that Phil Lesh and Friends have confirmed their first eight shows at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. These shows will take place in two segments: April 2 -5 and April 9 -12. For the first segment, Lesh will be joined by Furthur band mates John Kadlecik, Joe Russo and Jeff Chimenti as well as the husband/wife duo Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams. Phil’s band for the second segment will be made up of Russo, Kadlecik, Jackie Greene and Marco Benevento. A pre-sale for the Cap shows starts on Wednesday, February 5 at 10 a.m. ET with the general onsale to follow a week from today.

Lesh also has a visit booked to Shapiro’s new Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas on April 18 -20. His band for these shows will be made up of John Scofield, John Medeski, Joe Russo and Jackie Greene. Tickets to see Phil in Vegas go on sale tomorrow, February 1, at 1 p.m. ET via BrooklynBowl.com.
