I believe this appears notable and is apparently a well-known name in the Grateful Dead world but, as I'm unfamiliar and have no interest with this type of music, maybe others can give some input. Searches found results here, here, here and here which several of these can certainly help the article, but again, before using my time and efforts, I'd like to get input if this is acceptably notable.

 * Keep. It's obvious that this band meets the notability criterion. — Mudwater (Talk) 11:35, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
