Second Phil Lesh & Friends Central Park Show Added

After tickets for a Phil Lesh & Friends show at Rumsey Playfield in New York City’s Central Park scheduled for May 28 sold out with a quickness, a second show has been added. The just-announced show will take place on May 31 and will find Lesh joined by John Scofield, John Medeski, Joe Russo and Warren Haynes for a show scheduled to begin at 4:30 p.m.

Phil last played Central Park in November for a surprise set at Shapiro’s Jazz & Colors event featuring Joe Russo and Eric Krasno. Both Central Park shows are being promoted by impresario Peter Shapiro as part of his exclusive deal with Phil Lesh.

Tickets for the May 31st Phil & Friends show in Central Park go on sale Friday, May 2 at 12 p.m. ET via the Capitol Theatre website.
