The Fox Theatre is proud to host A Very Jerry Evening, a joyous birthday tribute to the late Jerry Garcia, on Thursday, July 31, 2025. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the festivities kicking off at 8:00 PM. All ages are welcome (under 16 admitted with adult), and tickets are on sale now at z2ent.com.
Led by guitarist and bandleader Dave Abear, A Very Jerry Band will take the stage for an evening of faithful renditions of Jerry Garcia’s most beloved tunes, drawing from his storied career with the Grateful Dead and beyond. Expect soaring guitar leads, improvisational jams, and the signature blend of rock, folk, blues, and country that defined Garcia’s sound. From the sun-soaked groove of “Deal” to the wandering harmonies of “Friend of the Devil,” each song is delivered with passion and respect for the man whose playing inspired generations of musicians.
Situated “On the Hill”—the vibrant neighborhood just above downtown and steps from the CU Boulder campus—the Fox Theatre offers an intimate setting ideally suited for this celebration of community, creativity, and the enduring spirit of Jerry Garcia. Whether you’re a lifelong Deadhead or discovering these songs for the first time, A Very Jerry Evening promises to transport you on a musical journey filled with warmth, improvisation, and heartfelt moments.
