Dead & Company take Grateful Dead songs on the road Dead & Company, the reconstituted version of the Grateful Dead, is alive and well and heading to DTE Energy Music Theatre. The group — which pairs Grateful Dead members Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann and Bob Weir with singer and guitarist John Mayer; Allman Brothers’ bassist Oteil Burbridge and “Fare Thee Well” and RatDog keyboardist Jeff Chimenti — will perform at DTE on July 7, promoters announced Monday. Tickets, $36-$145.50, go on sale through Ticketmaster at 10 a.m. Friday, with pre-sales beginning at 10 a.m. Tuesday. The DTE date is part of a five-week summer trek that kicks off June 10 in Charlotte and wraps July 16 in Boston. The group is also headlining this year’s Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. The band’s concerts will see them performing two sets of Grateful Dead songs. Dead & Company made its debut in October 2015, following the Grateful Dead’s successful series of “Fare Thee Well” concerts in summer 2015.

Last year’s festival included performances by Modest Mouse, Passion Pit and Brandon Flowers, as well as a massive rainstorm that sent fans scrambling for shelter and briefly shut down the festival. Prior to its debut at West Riverside Park, Mo Pop was held at Freedom Hill Amphitheatre in Sterling Heights in 2013 and 2014. Mo Pop will mark the Metro Detroit debut of Haim, the L.A. trio of sisters who skipped the market entirely during the extensive touring behind their 2013 debut album, “Days are Gone.”
