This tripping-instrumental quartet was certified authentic psychedelia before they ever appeared on record — by no less than the surviving members of the Grateful Dead. Guitarist Neal Casal of the Chris Robinson Brotherhood started CATS with keyboard player Adam MacDougall (another member of the Brotherhood), bassist Dan Horne and drummer Mark Levy after he was commissioned to create original intermission music for the Dead’s Fare Thee Well reunion shows in 2015.
Whether you’re listening to their studio work or seeing them live, get yourself in the proper frame of mind and just let the music take you wherever it wants to go.
"One of the most appealing aspects about CATS to Deadheads is the way the music basically plays like an extended Grateful Dead jam. The long, drawn-out, and totally instrumental music is enthralling, all-encompassing, and wide-ranging." - The Pop Break
