About Bigfoot County: Bigfoot County is a group of 6 musicians paying tribute to the Grateful Dead one show at a time. Bigfoot County was formed in 2010 when a group of friends, who share a love for the music of The Grateful Dead got together in former drummer Sam Navarre’s basement to jam. Since then they have become a critically acclaimed live act playing to packed houses all over the region: "Bigfoot County has developed a following that often leaves standing (or dancing) room only. With their authenticity and true admiration for the Dead, the band has found a niche in the growing musical community."--Magazine33.

Over the past five years the band has evolved and taken on different incarnations, always staying true to the spirit of the Grateful Dead's music, as well as adding a different spin on the improvisation at times. Our goal is to scratch the itch that so many Deadheads feel on a regular basis.

With a large repertoire of Grateful Dead songs to choose from and exploratory improvisational musicianship, Bigfoot County's live show is not to be missed!!
