About The Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead posters and album art, from skeletons and roses to dancing bears, are central to psychedelic design. Grateful Dead fans, known as Deadheads, followed the band from city to city for decades. Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night. The Grateful Dead formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1965 and became famous for long, improvised live shows. This poster advertised a 1978 show. Many concert posters listed several bands, capturing who shared the stage on a given night.
