About the band

Tumbledown Shack

Fort Collins, CO · since 2019

Tumbledown Shack is a five-piece Grateful Dead tribute established in 2019 in Fort Collins, Colorado, started by Chris Bell and Luke Zollo after Bell answered a Craigslist ad Zollo posted. The band deliberately does not replicate the Dead note for note, instead approaching the songs with the same improvisational instinct the original band used. They have played the Mishawaka Amphitheatre, the Aggie Theatre and the Fox Theatre alongside a steady run of Front Range taprooms, festivals and private events.
