Crickets & Cicadas ~ Grateful Dead
Shere-E-Punjab · Media, PA
A NJ/PA-based Grateful Dead tribute collective known for improvisation-rich performances that use the Dead's catalog as a springboard for extended, exploratory jams.
Expect a fluid lineup of high-energy musicians who treat the Grateful Dead songbook as a launching pad rather than a script, stretching familiar tunes into wild, improvisational detours before steering back to the melody. The jams are expressive and unpredictable enough that you may lose track of the original song, only to be guided home with a gentle, mind-expanding landing.

Shere-E-PunjabShere-E-Punjab is an intimate Indian restaurant on State Street that transforms into a lively live music room most nights of the week. With a capacity of around 70, guests can reserve a table for dinner and craft drinks, then enjoy an up-close evening of music — from weekly jazz jams to weekend rock, reggae, and tribute bands — all in a warm, casual dining-room atmosphere.
