Scarlet Mountain began in December 2006 with a very simple plan: perform great music & have a great time knowing that the positive energy flowing off-stage is very contagious. More than a tribute, Scarlet Mountain is a Grateful Dead musical experience! The goal is to get people dancing & feeling good through music, mood & energy.
In addition to the original music of the Grateful Dead, Scarlet Mountain also include tunes from an eclectic selection that the Grateful Dead themselves had covered. A few names off the long list include: Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, Johnny Cash & The Rolling Stones.
Scarlet Mountain is comprised of seasoned musicians who have been playing in & around Chicago for many years. As the group came together unique styles & backgrounds were quickly realized & put to good use! At a show you will hear hints of jazz, R&B, reggae & funk tastefully intertwined within the music.
Scarlet Mountain is currently booking & looks forward to playing your venue or at a venue near you!
