Dave Harrington of Darkside

 

Greetings, Dead Freaks!

On this episode, I am joined by Dave Harrington. Dave has a lot of musical irons in the fire but his band, Darkside, has returned from hiatus with a new album entitled, Spiral. We talk about putting the duo back together, improvisation, Dave's numerous other projects and, of course, Grateful Dead. 

After the chat, there is a heavy dose of 1974 Dead to keep your head right for late July. Nothing beats the heat like blowing your mind. 

Be sure to check out Spiral, the latest from Darkside, on your favorite streaming platform, directly from Matador Records, or on Bandcamp. You can find Dave's Big Shapes Vol. 1 and lots of other great music at DHGroup.bandcamp.com.
