TenMileRide

TenMileRide is an improvisational rock band from Columbia, South Carolina that treats the Grateful Dead as a jumping-off point rather than a setlist. Its own site says the band pays tribute to the Dead's improvisational legacy by performing set-length instrumental excursions. Grateful Web describes the same approach as exploratory improvisational rock that honors the unexpected. The band has played Asheville Music Hall and the Grateful Dawg Festival, and has appeared repeatedly as the house band for JerryFest in Columbia. It made its Charleston Pour House debut on August 1, 2026 as part of the venue's 19th annual Garcia Gathering, and returns to the Pour House deck stage on October 24, 2026.
