Southern CA Jam Band with Grateful Dead Roots. Great chemistry and something to sing make up this band of established players and longtime friends. Sound of the band is often remincent to Wilco, The Band, Neil Young, Phish.
Music grown from Acoustic Guitars and a mandolin to eventually transform to the Electric Band today- Hempstring Orchestra. We have a long rich history of playing the music of the Grateful Dead and other jam band genres. We leaned into artist like Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, The Beatles, Neil Young. The band has been developing original lyrics and jams for years and are passionate about creating our own musical Journey. Welcome to The Hempstring Orchestra!
