Amy Helm & Grahame Lesh Present: Songs of Their Own

Amy Helm & Grahame Lesh Present: Songs of Their Own. Grahame Lesh and Amy Helm first shared the stage together at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, NY, surrounded by the songs of their fathers: Phil Lesh of The Grateful Dead, and Levon Helm of The Band, respectively. Since that day in 2010, their musical community and bond has only grown. Throughout the years, Grahame and Amy have been frequent collaborators: Grahame sitting in with Amy’s band, Amy sharing the stage with Midnight North, and as parts of the whole of Capitol Sun Rays, their musical collaboration with Luther Dickinson, JT Nero, and Allison Russell. “It has been magical playing songs by both The Band and Grateful Dead with Amy,” shares Grahame. “ Bringing our music together with the songs that we each began our musical lives immersed in is such an exciting endeavor for all of us, and we can’t wait to get started.” Performing these catalogs marks a homecoming, a calling, and a shared familial experience for both Amy and Grahame. Join them, along with their stellar band, for a night of music celebrating the iconic songbooks of both Grateful Dead and The Band. “The connection Grahame and I share onstage always feels like a direct channel to the commitment, honesty, and joy both my father and Phil exude in their musical expression. We’re thrilled to be creating this touchstone of our musical histories together.” – Amy Helm
