The Days Between: Celebrating Jerry Garcia on The Grateful Dead Channel

To commemorate “The Days Between,” a.k.a the 9 days between the anniversary of Jerry Garcia’s birth on August 1, 1942, and his passing on August 9, 1995, the Grateful Dead Channel (Ch. 23) will once again delve into a treasure trove of music and words to celebrate Garcia’s life and musical legacy.

Over the course of the week, you’ll hear his music, interview segments, and remembrances from both his friends and fans. Each day at 3 a.m., noon, and 9 p.m. ET, the Grateful Dead Channel will air full Jerry Garcia concerts, including The 2016 Jerry Garcia Symphonic Celebration featuring Warren Haynes from Red Rocks, Colorado (see schedule below).

Earlier this summer At Mountain Jam 2016, Warren Haynes recounted where he was when Jerry Garcia passed away and how he came up with the first lines of his song Patchwork Quilt.

Chris Robinson, Jam On host and frontman of The Chris Robinson Brotherhood, recently talked about what made Garcia so special.
