Excellant Dead-Like Jam Band

Drove an hour to hear/see them twice now. The band provides an absolutely fabulous Dead- Like atmosphere, safe n nurturing; including tie-dyed merchandise n followers selling other essentials. Good people. Good Vibes. Good music.

Hired as: Alternative Band, Rock Band

What to expect

We are a "Jam Band". We play many different covers but mostly we play Grateful Dead and Phish tunes. We also play original music and love to improvise live. Each performance and every tune is unique and full of energy. Sweet Delta Dawn is awesome live!

About

We are a group of eccentric musicians working together to find enlightenment through tasty jams. Brought together by a love for classic rock and a desire for improvisation. We hope to bring a few extra smiles. The Sweet Delta Dawn is a jam band based out of Madison, Wisconsin. Heavily inspired by bands like the Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, and Phish, they bring a few extra smiles everywhere they go. Their music is a blendification of psychedelic, jam, rock, blues, and specially chosen cover tunes. Sweet Delta Dawn is: Tyler Willenbrink on drums, Jeff Clarke on bass and vocals, Cameron Kennedy on guitar and vocals, and Jay Vollberg on keyboard. They have been playing together for almost 4 years, each with over a decade of experience at their craft, and are one of the newest up and coming Jam Bands. You will LOVE the Sweet Delta Dawn! (~);}

Additional booking notes

We are a four piece band. Keyboard, guitar, bass, and drums. The guitar and bass players both sing. So we need two vocal microphones, 2 DI boxes, a drum mic kit, and enough power for 4 amps, a keyboard, and two effects pedal boards. We can provide our own PA and gear. However, we would need the above list if we didn't bring our own PA and other gear.
