Music Factory Records proudly presents "Rare Groove," the latest single that brings together a constellation of musical virtuosos. This piece showcases the genius of Ari Joshua on guitar, Delvon Lamarr wielding the Hammond organ, Skerik enchanting with his saxophone, and Grant Schroff commanding the drums. Together, they embark on a sonic journey that is as mesmerizing as it is unforgettable.

Ari Joshua, an emblematic voice from the Dead's lineage, dives deep into the psychedelic realm, unveiling an all-star rendition of the Garcia/Hunter masterpiece, "Help on the Way." Teaming up with the likes of John Kimock on drums, Andy Hess on bass, and the talented Eden Ladin on keyboards, Ari not only provides the vocals and guitar but also steers the ship as the producer.

Ari Joshua, together with a brilliant ensemble of musicians, is thrilled to announce the release of their reinterpretation of 'Eyes of the World,' an iconic composition from the legendary duo, Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter. This fresh rendition arrives hot on the heels of the much-buzzed-about Dead and Company farewell tour, giving fans another avenue to celebrate the music that's touched millions.

Another exciting musical project is emerging from an unlikely source - an old bicycle warehouse in the heart of Burlington, Vermont. The Tank, affectionately known to some as "the Phish Tank", hosted this session just after 'The Beacon Jams' sessions at the tail end of our national health crisis. The project, until further notice, is going by the acronym 'RAaR' for Ray, Ari, and Russ.
