Watch Grateful Dead tributes at the Kennedy Center Honors


The Kennedy Center has released official footage of Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks, Dave Matthews and others paying musical tribute to the Grateful Dead at this year’s Kennedy Center Honors show in Washington D.C.

The trio were joined onstage by American singer-songwriters Leon Bridges and Maggie Rogers for a cover of Buddy Holly’s Not Fade Away, a song long associated with the Grateful Dead, who played it over 600 times throughout their career. Country star Sturgill Simpson also paid tribute to the Dead, performing Ripple, which originally appeared on 1970’s American Beauty album.
