Later this month, Connecticut’s Fairfield University will host special event dedicated to the music and legacy of the Grateful Dead dubbed “Truckin’ with the Grateful Dead: Hippies to Highbrows.” The show will feature both music and conversation from David Gans with a couple other Dead experts as special guests.

Gans, musician, journalist, co-author of Playing in the Band: An Oral and Visual Portrait of the Grateful Dead and host of SiriusXM’s Tales From the Golden Road, will be joined by Nicholas Meriwether, a Grateful Dead archivist from the University of California and San Francisco’s Center for Counterculture Studies, and Jeff Mattson, guitarist for Dead tribute act Dark Star Orchestra.

Hippies to Highbrows will take place at Fairfield University on October 28. More information on the event is available here.
