Boxcar is singer/songwriter Jorge Valcárcel and the songs that he carries around with him as he vagabonds from town to town. Freight trains and hurricanes; girls that you can't forget and the sleepless nights; Boxcar's songs distill these experiences into a plaintive wail that only a coyote and the human heart knows . The new St. Louis band is the best line-up yet. One thing remains the same: the songs are acoustic pop gems that will have you singing-a-long and dancing to the beat in no time! ¡Viva Boxcar!

Mason’s Children is unlike your average Grateful Dead tribute. This group of youngsters brings to the stage more than just recreations of our favorite Dead tunes… they embody the authentic 1960’s flower child vibration!

Members met on the Golden Road, travelling the Earth and following their dreams. The band first began learning the ropes of the music at Dead and Co / Bob Weir shows, and gained a following by playing at shakedown lots before and after each show.

They are also known for their impromptu Haight Street shows, where they set up plugged in on the corner of Haight and Ashbury playing multiple sets of music, revitalizing Haight of its Summer of Love era.

They are versed in all eras of The Grateful Dead, but currently align more with the 1960’s and 70’s chapter.

Mason’s Children is learning from the Grateful Dead and strongly believe the music will never stop. They are carrying on the legacy of the Dead as well as leaving their own taste of life with original songs and other musical numbers that illuminate the soul.

Mason’s Children has a zest and passion for The Grateful Dead that shines through their playing.
