Four longtime members of the various Phil & Friends touring ensembles Phil Lesh has put together will come together for a special performance later this month. On January 14, guitarist/pedal steel player Barry Sless, bassist Pete Sears, drummer John Molo and keyboardist Rob Barraco will all perform alongside Los Angeles singer/songwriter/guitarist Katie Skene at Lesh’s San Rafael, CA club Terrapin Crossroads. The musicians promise a mix of “original music, classic Americana and jam flavored rock and roll.”

Both Sless and Sears were part of some of Lesh’s earliest Friends lineups in 1999 and have collaborated with the bassist in the years since. Barraco and Molo were both part of Lesh’s signature Quintet from 2000-2003; the drummer also remained his steadiest rhythm partner through 2008.
