"Cubensis plays with the same laid-back mastery as the Real McCoy" - LA WEEKLY.

Cubensis celebrates the Grateful Dead concert experience. Like the Dead, the band plays a wondrous amalgam of blues, country, jazz, electronic and rock and roll music, all in the space of about three hours on stage. No two shows are alike. As with all improvisational jambands, every Cubensis performance is an ongoing experiment. All eras of the Dead are represented, plus selections from the Jerry Garcia Band. Truly, there is nothing like a Cubensis show!!

Because the band dresses and acts like the audience, because there is no "show"-- the audience correctly perceives them as people like themselves who happen to be able to play---equal partners in a psychic quest. There's an overwhelming sense of "here I belong" when confronted by the band, its music and scene (with apologies to Scrib).

Here's how the band got started-- Click here.

Cubensis salutes our Deadicated and hardworking merch lady B.J., soundman John Murchison of JRM Audio, audio archivist Wayne Stielau, videographer Tibor "Grunzy" Grunsfeld plus crew/volunteers past and present. Thanks also to our gifted artist Darrin Brenner-Rolat, and to mushrooms. Ultimate props to all the members of the Grateful Dead.

Cubensis commentary: The band plays weekly shows that are sometimes only marginally profitable, all because we believe in the "community" of Deadheads and getting together regularly. Please support these shows with your faithful attendance whenever you can!
