Songs that Phil the air is a tribute night honouring the legendary bass player, Phil Lesh. 5 talented Vancouver bass players come together to pay homage to the iconic musician known for his unique style and contributions to the Grateful Dead.

Phil Lesh, a founding member of the Grateful Dead, played bass guitar with the band for over 30 years. Trained in jazz and classical music, Lesh developed his own distinctive sound on his six-string bass, often finding melodies that added depth and complexity to the band's music.

After the Grateful Dead disbanded in 1995, Lesh continued to share his love for music through his side project, Phil Lesh and Friends. He also operated the music venue, Terrapin Crossroads, and performed with Furthur alongside Bob Weir. Lesh's influence on the music industry is undeniable. His legacy will live on through all the musicians and bands he inspired.

Songs That Phil The Air Saturday, February 8th at the Anza Club in Vancouver. Get ready to experience the magic of Phil Lesh's music brought to life by this talented group of musicians. Join us for a night of unforgettable music, love dancing and joy as we pay tribute to one of the greatest bass players of all time.
