The Grateful Dead’s Mickey Hart Makes Beats From Brainwave. Comp tickets are available for the August 9 show at The House of Blues.
Mickey Hart, who as one of the “rhythm devils,” put the beat behind the Grateful Dead for nearly four decades, brings his band and (literally) brainy style to the House of Blues. Celebrating his upcoming album Superorganism — which incorporates the natural rhythms of the human body into original music — Hart will perform wearing an EEG cap on his head. This remarkable device will allow the Rock and Rock Hall of Famer to amplify the sounds of his own throbbing brain and “play” his thoughts and feelings in real time. Joining him on stage will be the Tea Leaf Trio (Trevor Garrod, Reed Mathis and Scott Rager from the San Francisco jam band Tea Leaf Green). Experience the truly “inner” music of a legendary, Grammy Award-winning innovator and performer at this unique concert.
