Join us inside the museum for our after-party concert!
SHINE ON BAND, based in Southern Oregon, is an improvisational cover band that celebrates the timeless music of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band.
Describing their sound as “Grateful Americana,” SHINE ON BAND goes beyond just performing Grateful Dead originals, they pay homage to the iconic songwriters of the mid-20th century, covering legendary artists like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Cliff, Van Morrison, Merle Haggard, and more.
SHINE ON thrives on improvisation, ensuring that no two performances are alike. This spontaneous approach means they rarely repeat songs over consecutive nights, making each show a unique experience.
Price: $8 members, $12 non-members
Time: 6:30 to 8:30 PM
Location: DaVinci's Garage (inside ScienceWorks)
