🎶 Where Every Song is Played is a Live Phil song, As It Was Meant to Be Heard Welcome to Dead Set Live — your home for the raw, real, and revelatory sounds of live jam music. And on Tuesday nights, we go even deeper with a special experience: The Phil & Friends Radio Show, airing tonight at 9PM EST. If you’re looking for true improvisational magic and sonic exploration, this is the show you’ve been waiting for.
🎸 What Is the Phil & Friends Radio Show?
This isn’t your typical radio program. The Phil & Friends Radio Show is a deep dive into the ever-evolving, always-in-the-moment sound of Phil Lesh, legendary bassist and founding member of the Grateful Dead. But this isn’t about the Dead’s greatest hits — it’s about the next chapter. A chapter written live, night after night, by Phil and a rotating lineup of world-class musicians.
From extended psychedelic jams to reinvented classics, every track is a unique snapshot in time — never to be played the same way twice.
🌌 Why Phil & Friends?
Phil Lesh didn’t stop at the Grateful Dead. With Phil & Friends, he built a platform to keep the spirit of improvisation alive — inviting artists from across genres and generations to co-create unforgettable live experiences. The result? Musical chemistry that sparks new ideas, blends old souls with fresh energy, and continuously redefines what jam music can be.
The Phil & Friends Radio Show captures that creative fire, airing nothing but live tracks, handpicked from the archives and flowing like a perfect setlist from your dream show.
🔊 Live Jam, All the Time
Dead Set Live is all about honoring the live music experience. No studio takes. No overdubs. Just raw, uncut performances where every note, lyric, and transition matters. That’s what makes Live Jam so powerful — it recreates the energy of the crowd, the spontaneity of the moment, and the risk that turns into reward when musicians let the music play them.
And with Phil & Friends, those moments are everywhere — deep space jams, thunderous bass lines, surprising covers, and joyously unpredictable segues.
🎶 What to Expect Tonight
Tonight’s Phil & Friends Radio Show is loaded with handpicked live gems pulled from memorable performances across the years. While each week’s lineup is a new sonic journey, you can expect:
- Grateful Dead classics reimagined, like The Other One, Shakedown Street, and Unbroken Chain
- Deep jams and seamless transitions that stretch the bounds of time
- Unique lineups featuring members of The Allman Brothers Band, Gov’t Mule, Phish, Furthur, and more
- Covers that go from Zeppelin to Dylan to The Band — all filtered through the Phil lens
- That signature thunder-bass tone that only Phil Lesh can deliver
Every version you hear tonight is LIVE, raw, and one-of-a-kind — just like the magic of a real show under the stars.
