World-renowned saxophone player Branford Marsalis stepped into familiar surroundings last night as the joined Furthur on stage at Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheater. Helping Furthur close their four-night run at the scenic venue, Marsalis lent his horn to Grateful Dead classics such as “Help on the Way,” “Franklin’s Tower,” “Eyes of the World” and more. Marsalis has a long history with the members of the Grateful Dead. He sat in with the Dead at Uniondale, NY’s Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum on March 29, 1990 for a classic performance that is partially documented on Without a Net. He joined the Grateful Dead proper four other times—12-31-90 , 09-10-91, 12-10-93 and 12-16-94—and has collaborated with members of the band on a few other occasions, including the reformed Dead in 2009.

As the Furthur approaches the end of their tour—and the beginning of their indefinite hiatus—they will travel to Redmond, WA for a show at the Marymoor Amphitheater that will be broadcast on SiriusXM Radio’s Grateful Dead channel.
