profound influence and contributions of Jewish artists and fans to the iconic
rock band’s legacy.

beloved Grateful Dead songs while sharing personal narratives and historical
insights. This concert will spotlight different aspects of Jewish identity as
it intersects with the band’s ethos, exploring themes of community,
spirituality, and resilience.

music resonates deeply throughout the Jewish experience,” says **Benji
Rosenzweig,** STORIED. Co-Creator and host of the evening. “We are excited to
continue creating a space where these stories can be heard and celebrated
through the universal language of music.”
