HEADCOUNT AND DAYGLO PRESENT
PHIL LESH & TERRAPIN FAMILY BAND
w/ Harlem Gospel Choir, Nicki Bluhm, Eric Krasno, Talib Kweli and Robert Randolph A Benefit for Voter Participation
On September 7, HeadCount, the non-partisan organization that promotes involvement in our democracy, is teaming up with Peter Shapiro’s Dayglo Presents to host Don’t Tell Me This Country Ain’t Got No Heart: A Benefit for Voter Participation, a special concert event at Harlem’s legendary Apollo Theater, featuring a performance from Phil Lesh & Very Special Friends.
Lesh will become the first Grateful Dead member to play the famed Harlem venue, where he will be joined by the Harlem Gospel Choir and frequent collaborators, The Terrapin Family Band (Grahame Lesh, Jason Crosby, Ross James and Alex Koford), plus vocalist Nicki Bluhm, Grammy-winning guitarist Eric Krasno, hip-hop artist and activist Talib Kweli, and sacred steel guitar maestro Robert Randolph.
“This is a moment when everybody needs to participate in the political process,” says Dayglo founder and HeadCount board member, Peter Shapiro. “It’s also time to bring the music of the Grateful Dead to the epic Apollo Theater, with the purpose of raising as much money as possible to support widespread participation in the November elections. It’s going to be an amazing and celebratory evening, especially since this will be the first time these songs have been performed at the Apollo.”
Don’t Tell Me This Country Aint Got No Heart: A Benefit for Voter Participation will support HeadCount’s ongoing efforts to engage and inform voters who will then make their voices heard at the polls. Funding will support several initiatives including a program to register voters at high schools, a get-out-the-vote tour of colleges, and a multimedia campaign called “The Future is Voting.” HeadCount is also providing direct assistance for local organizations who are registering voters of all ages in their own communities.
“We are seeing history unfold around us every day, and this concert will be a unique part of that history,” says HeadCount co-founder and Executive Director Andy Bernstein. “We are honored that Phil and these amazing artists have chosen voter participation as the cause they want to support.”
On her late father Levon Helm‘s 78th birthday, Amy Helm sits in with friends of the family, Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band, on their encore performance of The Band‘s classic “The Weight“.
Phil and his band (Grahame Lesh, Ross James, Alex Koford, Jason Crosby) had just completed two magnificent sets (see full setlist below), closing out the day at Revival, a music festival at Harmony Park, in Geneva Minnesota. Amy Helm and her band performed a full set earlier in the day.

Dedicated to John Perry Barlow
| Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band with Eric Krasno |
| Thursday February 8, 2018 |
Terrapin Crossroads, San Rafael CA
The show opened with a beautiful Attics Of My Life, Phil Lesh, Alex Koford, Grahame Lesh – with Grahame’s guitar the sole instrument. Phil then spoke, a brief and beautiful eulogy to Grateful Dead lyricist John Perry Barlow. He said that tonight’s performance would be dedicated to Barlow, and the show included some of his songs, as well as plenty of songs that JPB would love to dance too. We mourn his loss, and celebrate his spirit. And we keep on dancing. On the original setlist, they were going to play “He Was A Friend of Mine”, which many of us in the room could say… the show ran long, and they kept the encore to one song, Box of Rain. Such a long long time to be gone, and a short time to be… to be…
We love you John – safe passage to the next adventure. And Thank you Phil Lesh, for your eloquent words, beautiful music, and the love you bring. We are truly blessed to be part of this Terrapin Nation.
Always grateful,
Happycat!
