Bearded Guitar Wizard Ross James is our guest this week on No Simple Road. Ross is one of the busiest humans in the Grateful Dead Family with his playing in Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band, Cosmic Twang, his solo music career, and working as a man behind the scenes at Terrapin Crossroads just to name a few! We talk about his surreal journey leading to where he's at now, his part in putting together the 'Fare Thee Well' shows, rafting down a river in Idaho, and musical Shamanism..... stay tuned after the interview for a live recording of the first set of Cosmic Twang here in Portland!
