 \nBERTHA: Grateful Drag are the world’s first Grateful Dead tribute ban
 d of its kind. Born in Tennessee in 2023 as a joyful\\, defiant response 
 to anti-drag legislation\\, queens united on stage to celebrate community
  and raise funds in support. What was meant to be a one-night stand quick
 ly turned into a full-blown love affair: the debut show sold out\\, caugh
 t the attention of Rolling Stone and the San Francisco Chronicle\\, and l
 aunched an all-star roots collective with some serious legs and lashes.\\
 nThe band was hatched during a phone call from Mommy to Daddy Bertha (aka
  Caitlin Doyle and GRAMMY-winning songwriter Melody Walker)\\, with an in
 itial vision of an all-female\\, Nashville-based Dead project. That plan 
 gleefully expanded as queer and allied bluegrass and Americana heavyweigh
 ts Thomas Bryan Eaton (lead guitar)\\, Jacob Groopman (bass)\\, Mike Whee
 ler (rhythm guitar)\\, Alex Jordan (keys)\\, and Justin Vorp (drums) hopp
 ed aboard the rainbow bandwagon.\\nMusically\\, BERTHA stays reverent to 
 the tones\\, textures\\, and deep-groove spirit of the Grateful Dead cata
 log they hold sacred\\, while giving it a bold new glow-up. Doyle\\, Walk
 er\\, and Wheeler lead collectively as a vocal trio\\, shifting keys as n
 eeded to unleash powerhouse female vocals. Energy-wise\\, BERTHA leans ha
 rd into a high-octane\\, late 70's / early 80's Dead sound\\, complete wi
 th the classic two-set\\, three-hour format\\, and fresh\\, never-repeate
 d setlists every night.\\nCommunity is baked into the band’s DNA. Every
  BERTHA show includes a fundraising component for a local LGBTQ+ organiza
 tion and features drag or burlesque performers from the host city\\, turn
 ing each night into both a celebration and a cause. Equal parts jam-band 
 devotion and queer joy explosion\\, BERTHA: Grateful Drag has first-time 
 listeners and lifelong Deadheads alike waving that flag wide and bi. From
  an uproarious early set at Newport F\\nhttps://www.gayout.com/usa-canada
