David Nelson has been away from performing for over a year, dealing with some health issues. Last night he returned gloriously to the stage, with the full David Nelson Band!
It was a California Kind show, which features Barry Sless, Pete Sears and John Molo (all 3 also of of DNB), as well as Rob Barraco and Katie Skene.
The show became a benefit for the fire recovery efforts, and then it was announced that David Nelson would be sitting in, and Mookie Siegel would also be joining, making the DNB line up complete.
In the clip above Wavy Gravy introduces David and you can hear the emotion in the crowd! David is very happy to be playing once again, and they launch into rousing “Rocky Road Blues”

Rock legend Pete Sears, who masterfully plays bass, keys and vocals in the band Moonalice, performing an achingly beautiful rendition of Robert Hunter / Jerry Garcia’s song, the Grateful Dead classic “Stella Blue”.
Pete played and collaborated frequently with his friend Jerry Garcia, and has an incredible history with bands you probably love, from Jefferson Starship to Zero, from Rod Stewart and the Faces to the David Nelson Band, Hot Tuna, Steve Kimock, and even recently with my current favorite band, Scott Law and Ross James Cosmic Twang.
All guests receive a rock poster by Chris Shaw commemorating the show!
