Eric Krasno & Friends
Featuring Grahame Lesh, Ross James, Jennifer Hartswick, Nicki Bluhm, Eric Finland & Stanton Moore
Guitarist, producer, and songwriter Eric Krasno has long been a creative force in the world of soul, funk, and improvisational music—best known for his work with Soulive and Lettuce, as well as collaborations with artists like Norah Jones, Tedeschi Trucks Band, and Aaron Neville. With Eric Krasno & Friends, he curates a one-of-a-kind musical experience, assembling a revolving cast of elite players to explore deep grooves, classic tunes, and spontaneous jams that honor the roots of American music while pushing into new territory.
This special lineup features a stunning array of talent: Grahame Lesh (Midnight North, Terrapin Family Band) brings a rich Grateful Dead lineage and melodic sensibility; Ross James (Phil Lesh & Friends, Cosmic Twang) adds fiery guitar work and rootsy vocals; Jennifer Hartswick (Trey Anastasio Band) commands the stage with her soaring trumpet and unmistakable voice; Nicki Bluhm contributes her signature blend of California soul and Americana spirit; Eric Finland lays down lush keys and vintage textures; and Stanton Moore (Galactic) drives the whole thing forward with his unmistakable New Orleans groove.
Together, this ensemble delivers a show that’s equal parts soulful celebration, virtuosic performance, and collaborative magic. Expect everything from reimagined classics to original material, all filtered through the lens of players who live and breathe improvisation, connection, and groove.
For fans of jam, soul, roots, and rock, Eric Krasno & Friends is more than a concert—it’s a living, breathing moment in time.
