DelFest Does Dead - Various Artists (2-LP Vinyl)

DelFest’s bluegrass heart meets the Grateful Dead songbook on DelFest Does Dead, a live 2-LP vinyl featuring 10 interpretations captured across DelFest 2025 (May 22–25, 2025), in Cumberland, MD.

Festival favorites bring their own pulse and picking to Dead staples: Del McCoury Band, The Travelin’ McCourys, Leftover Salmon, Kitchen Dwellers, Darrell Scott, Sister Sadie, Railroad Earth, Mountain Grass Unit, Clay Street Unit, and The Price Sisters.

The result is a front-to-back journey of Grateful Dead covers filtered through Appalachia, high-lonesome harmonies, and hot-rod string band energy, mixed to be played loud. Produced by Ronnie McCoury and Ariel Rosemberg, and mastered by Jesse Lauter.

A portion of proceeds will benefit the Rex Foundation, established by members of the Grateful Dead in 1983, whose mission is to fund community-based arts and music education while supporting social and environmental causes. 

Please Note: This product is a pre-order and is expected to ship around December 8, 2025, along with any other vinyl records in your order.
