Falco & Book Play Garcia

About the band

Falco & Book Play Garcia

Falco & Book Play Garcia is a duo project by Andy Falco and Travis Book, both members of the Grammy-winning bluegrass band The Infamous Stringdusters. It started informally, backstage at Stringdusters shows, where the two would warm up on Jerry Garcia songs. They now tour it occasionally on its own, drawing on Garcia's solo catalogue, his Grateful Dead material and the traditional songs he liked to play. The arrangements are stripped to acoustic guitar, upright bass and vocal harmony, and they have released a live album under the name. They tour it in short runs between Stringdusters commitments rather than continuously.
