Oteil & Friends will bring an all-star lineup featuring Steve Kimock, Jason Crosby, Lamar Williams Jr., Johnny Kimock and Tom Guarna to the Boulder Theater on Thursday, March 4, 2027.
Two-time Grammy Award-winning bassist Oteil Burbridge has spent more than three decades touring and recording at the highest level of modern music. Most recently known for his role in Dead & Company, Burbridge helped carry forward the Grateful Dead legacy for a new generation. He tours extensively with Oteil & Friends and is also a member of Toy Factory Project, honoring the legacy of guitarist Toy Caldwell.
A founding member of the early ’90s Southern jazz-fusion group Col. Bruce Hampton & the Aquarium Rescue Unit, Burbridge later became the longest-tenured bassist in the history of The Allman Brothers Band.
On May 1, 2026, Burbridge released a collaborative album with vocalist Lamar Williams Jr. titled The Offering. Recorded in December 2024 at Iceland’s Flóki Studios, the album was produced by Soulive co-founder Alan Evans.
The Offering centers on melody, groove and message rather than genre, weaving together Southern soul, gospel harmonies, improvisational rock and African-rooted rhythms, all anchored by Burbridge’s banjo explorations and song-driven ensemble approach. The first single, “The Way We Rise,” is out now via Flóki Studios.
