Fri June 24th - Mr. Hat presents Grateful Friday w/ Lovin' Dead + Hot Mountain Dips at Ivy Room - Berkeley, CA
Mr. Hat Presents Grateful Friday at the Ivy Room, a monthly gathering of the Tribe.
Featuring Lovin' Dead and The Hot Mountain Dips, for your listening pleasure.
Lovin' Dead are a Sonoma County based Dead tribute who provide a very danceable, high energy and unique but familiar take on the Songbook. You may remember their set opening for Stu Allen & Mars Hotel on the Mare Island Waterfront in 2021. The fellas are students of the songs, exploring interactive psychedelic jams, smokin' guitar work, soulful three-part vocal harmonies & always Searching for the Sound. Young Zach Jones is becoming one of the more sought-after players in the scene, performing regularly with a variety of lineups including the exiting new all-star project The Dead 70's with Mark Karan.
The Hot Mountain Dips have been on my radar for some time. The recent addition of guitar wizard Jonny Mojo to the lineup leveled up this exciting project that dips into classic 60s and 70s rock and blues grooves and plays original music rooted in the San Francisco improvisational jam-rock scene. With a foundation in blues, Jonny Mojo transcends genres blending rock, folk, fusion, bluegrass, jam band styles and more. What really shines through in this band's performances is their heart felt passion for the music.
Shakedown Vendors/ Setbreak Smokeout TBA. 21+, 8:30-12:30 show
