Jackie Greene Will Be Phil’s Friend This Summer

Phil Lesh and Friends will play a few festival dates this summer. Since Lesh has performed with a number of different Friends lineups at his Terrapin Crossroads venue in recent months, many fans were wondering which musicians his band would feature (many were rooting for his classic Phil Lesh Quintet with Warren Haynes, Jimmy Herring, Rob Barracoand John Molo).

Jackie Greene has now confirmed that he will be one of Phil’s friends when the bassist plays Thornville, OH’s All Good Festival (7/19) as well as Bridgeport, CT’s Gathering Of The Vibes. (7/20). The rest of Lesh’s summer lineups have not been announced as of press time. Greene was a Phil & Friends staple in 2007 and 2008, and he continues to perform with Lesh in a variety of settings.

Phil Lesh & Friends will also perform at Telluride, CO’s Telluride Blues & Brews on September 16.
