Grateful Shred co-founder Dan Horne joins us for a chat about the making of the band, his love for the Dead (of course), and the tribute group's 2025 album, 'Might As Well.' We also talk about growing up in the Bay Area, Alembics and other gear, and so much more. Check out Grateful Shred on tour and see what all the fuss is about: https://www.gratefulshredmusic.com/
