Rock Out to The Wheel at Carol Theatre

Check out a Grateful Dead tribute band in Chestertown on August 5.

The Wheel is back - bringing their spin on classic Grateful Dead (and Dead adjacent) tunes—a whole night of rockin’ music to light up the summer night.

Playing together for over a decade, The Wheel put on a live show reminiscent of a classic night with the Grateful Dead.

Buckle up, put it in gear, and enjoy the ride with NY Capital Region’s authentic-sounding Grateful Dead tribute band, The Wheel, as they put their driving spin on the music you love and enjoy.

The Wheel brings a big, danceable groove to the party, driven by the deep pocket of rhythm guitarist and bandleader Andy Morse, bassist Dave Pallas, drummer Joe Sorbero and percussionist Pete Andriakos. They provide an unshakable foundation over which lead guitarist Bryan Gautie and keyboardist Rick Rothermel weave solo after evocative solo together with virtuosity and taste. Yet they are also capable of complex, interwoven conversations that display the nuance and dynamic range of the Dead’s music in quieter, more blissful passages. Vocally, The Wheel possesses a diverse blend of styles, from Morse’s smooth, heartfelt delivery, Rothermel’s full-throated soul, Bryan Gautie’s Jerry Garcia-like tenderness to Jill Gautie’s soaring harmonies.” - Nippertown 2021

Two sets of music full of songs you know, with improvisation that connects the band and audience and will have you dancing in the aisles and singing along.
