Featuring some of Atlanta’s finest musicians performing the music of the Grateful Dead, which spanned many genres from blues to bluegrass to blues to jazz. We are thrilled to have noted Grateful Dead scholar and host of the Grateful Dead Hour and Tales from the Road David Gans on SiriusXM. One of my longtime friends in the music business, David will be joining us from the comfy confines of his studio in San Francisco. Not one song is repeated, so once you’ve heard it, you’ve heard it! Please join us and support our annual Jerry Day celebration, ATL style!

Proceeds from Grizz Fest will directly benefit two music-based non-profits: 1) Gracenote Foundation, which is associated with Music on Main Street in Lilburn, GA and whose mission is to promote the role of music in child development, throughout adult life, and within communities. 2) Taproot Music Camp, continuing what Pepperland Music Camp started – a two-week overnight camp that provides instruction from professional musicians as well as traditional summer camp activities such arts & crafts with local artisans and of course swimming! No musical experience is necessary to participate.

Grizz Fest is truly going to be a musician’s celebration of Kevin Meaders the music man. There are quite a few surprises in store for this amazing event, so be sure to grab your tickets now to ensure your place!
Grapevine Talent has assembled an incredible lineup and folks continue to reach out who would like to be a part.

There have been quite a few passings that have occurred in many of my friends’ lives, some which have affected a few and some of which have affected many. To me, Grizz Fest is not only a celebration of the man they called Grizz, who touched so many and made so many special musical moments happen, but it is also an opportunity to remember our friends who have passed on from this realm.

The summer keeps on truckin’ along, which means it’s time for the 7th Annual Jerry Day ATL at Terminal West this Sunday, July 27!  We are extremely excited to bring to you a wonderful showcase of the music that was/is The Grateful Dead and the spirit that envelops music fans of all ages.  Out of this spirit arises interest in the world of roots music – bluegrass, blues, jazz, classic/outlaw country to name a few genres under the umbrella – which is what has been at the epicenter of the Dead’s sound and style.

You can purchase your advance tickets online at the Terminal West website or at the box office TUE-FRI 11AM-5PM and on show nights.  Advance tickets are also available at Maple Street Guitars and The Chamblee Bistro.

I’d like to send out a BIG heartfelt THANK YOU out to our sponsors for your kindness and support as we begin our new chapter at Terminal West.  –

Terminal West is the perfect venue for this event – they have the Stationside Restaurant directly connected so you will never go hungry.  The second stage will be located inside the restaurant.

We hope to see you there!
