Skip Creveling – Drums
Skip’s Mother deemed him a “rhythm baby” from his earliest years. Rocking, tapping and thumping until Yes put out Close to the Edge, then things got serious. Thx Bill Bruford. The music of the Grateful Dead 💀 pulled me in as I aged and when I met Jeanine, the Universe had set the stage for a joyous journey we now share with our beloved community of Deadheads. Thx for sharing the music with us as we interpret it for you all….
Greg Weinrieb – Bass
Greg grew up with a deep love for the blues, playing in a band during high school. After a 50-year break, he joined Dead in the Basement, rekindling his musical passion.
