A note from the Artist: (please view slideshow below)
“On December 31, 2011 I flew to San Fransisco with Erik Abrahamson, a very dedicated supporter of musicians, who is impressively attending concerts monthly by supporting popular artists from the 70′s, 80′s and 90′s. The concert was very impressive with a sold out venue!
I am currently building on a portfolio of musicians who are primarily 50+ with the exception of a few. My goal is to memorialize them with my paintings, while they are still performing. I am always impressed at each concert I attend how incredibly strong they still are today! I would say in most cases outstanding!”

History of Furthur:
is a rock band founded in 2009 by former Grateful Dead members Bob Weir and Phil Lesh. The original lineup also included John Kadlecik of the Dark Star Orchestra on lead guitar, Jeff Chimenti of RatDog on keyboards, Jay Lane of RatDog on percussion, and Joe Russo of the Benevento/Russo Duo on drums.[1] Named after the famous touring bus used by Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters in the 1960s, Furthur is an improvisational jam band that performs music primarily from the extensive Grateful Dead songbook, as well as their own original music and that of several other well-known artists. In addition to the original members (with the exception of Jay Lane, who left the band in March 2010 to rejoin his previous funk metal rock band, Primus), the band’s current lineup also includes backup vocalists Sunshine Becker of the a cappella ensemble SoVoSó and Jeff Pehrson of the folk rock bands Box Set and The Fall Risk.
