On the passing of Bobby Weir…
16 January 2026
So sorry to hear of Bobby’s passing. He was a true inspiration and shining light, both musically and for how he used his gifts to make the world better. I’m so grateful for our friendship and getting to collaborate both onstage and for causes we care so much about. He was one of the most unique and inventive guitarists I’ve known and I love that he was always stretching, always reinventing and always cutting right through to the mighty core.
I send my deepest condolences to Natascha, Chloe, Monet and the extended Grateful Dead family and community. Bobby will be sorely missed, always treasured and never, ever fade away…
Here’s one of the organizations we both cared deeply about. No better way to honor his memory than to support HeadCount and their efforts to register voters and make democracy work! https://www.headcount.org/donate/
