Cosmic Charlie

About the band

Cosmic Charlie

Athens, GA · since 1999

Cosmic Charlie came out of Athens, Georgia in the summer of 1999 and built its name on a personal rather than literal reading of the Grateful Dead catalog, using the Dead's energy and style as a foundation instead of copying it. Most nights the band takes the stage without a setlist and without knowing the first song, and takes requests from the floor. They have played more than 300 shows at theaters, clubs and festivals across the country, and work the Carolinas regularly, including Ziggy's in Greensboro and Cat's Cradle in Carrboro.
