The 710 Experiment is collective of likeminded musicians interested in improvisation and musical exploration. Using the songs of The Grateful Dead as a platform, the idea is to move musical energy in and out of those frameworks and find new and interesting places to take them. With a very special group chemistry and musical communication, and pure love of sonic exploration, we want to make each show a unique experience, very much the way a jazz band, or The Dead themselves approached playing live. The band tends to focus on material that lends itself to improvisation, and weaves  from song to song in long, continuous streams that can last many hours!!!! Following in the spirit of the early San Francisco bands from the Late 1960’s, the band favors an unconventional approach to playing and presenting our music, preferring to do live streams from our rehearsal space, “The Lounge”, putting on our own shows, and only playing venues that are friendly to this type of approach!!! We are really excited to continue exploring and growing and sharing our musical adventure with everyone!!!!!
