The Wolf Bros

The Wolf Bros

The Wolf Bros is a musical project featuring Grateful Dead guitarist and vocalist Bob Weir alongside renowned musician and producer Don Was. Formed in 2018, the duo, accompanied by drummer Jay Lane, embarked on a series of live performances that showcased Weir's rich musical legacy while exploring new avenues of creativity and expression. The collaboration between Bob Weir and Don Was brought together two seasoned musicians with distinct backgrounds and styles. Weir, a founding member of the Grateful Dead, brought decades of experience as a guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter, while Was, known for his work as a producer and bassist, brought a keen ear for arrangement and composition. The Wolf Bros' repertoire encompassed a wide range of material, drawing from Weir's extensive catalog of songs with the Grateful Dead, his solo work, and various side projects. The duo's performances were characterized by stripped-down arrangements, allowing Weir's soulful vocals and intricate guitar playing to take center stage while Was provided solid bass lines and tasteful accompaniment. In addition to performing classic songs from Weir's musical repertoire, the Wolf Bros also delved into covers of songs from a diverse array of artists, adding their own unique twist to familiar favorites. Their live performances were marked by spontaneous improvisations, extended jams, and an infectious energy that captivated audiences and left a lasting impression. Beyond their live performances, the Wolf Bros also released an album titled "Blue Mountain" in 2016, which featured a collection of original songs written by Weir and collaborator Josh Ritter. The album showcased a more introspective and roots-oriented side of Weir's songwriting, further highlighting the versatility and depth of his musical expression. While the Wolf Bros project was relatively short-lived, lasting for a couple of years, it left a lasting impact on fans of Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead. The collaboration between Weir and Was served as a testament to the enduring power of music to bring people together and create moments of connection and inspiration. Though the Wolf Bros may no longer be actively performing, their music continues to resonate with listeners around the world, serving as a reminder of the timeless appeal of Bob Weir's artistry and the creative spirit that drives musicians like Weir and Was to push the boundaries of their craft.
