Dark Star Orchestra to perform for two nights in Huntington

The Island Now

Celebrating their 20th anniversary this year and more than 2,600 shows, Dark Star Orchestra continues the Grateful Dead concert experience. Their shows are built off the Dead’s extensive catalog and the talent of these seven fine musicians.

On any given night, the band will perform a show based on a set list from the Grateful Dead’s 30 years of touring.  This allows fans both young and old to share in the experience.  By creating set lists from the past and developing their own sets of Dead songs, Dark Star Orchestra offers a continually evolving artistic outlet within this musical canon. The band seeks out the unique style and sound of each era while simultaneously offering their own informed improvisations.

In addition to an authentic sound, Dark Star Orchestra encapsulates the energy and feel of a Grateful Dead concert, performing throughout the country and at major music festivals including Bonnaroo, Milwaukee’s SummerFest, The Peach Music Festival, All Good Festival, Gathering of the Vibes, Mountain Jam and many more.

The band will perform on Long island, with a special, two-night concert at The Paramount on Friday, Nov. 25 and Saturday, Nov. 25 at 8 p.m.

The Paramount is located at 370 New York Ave. in Huntington.
