John K’s Mystery Band

The Hamilton Live in Washington, DC is hosting two nights of John K's Mystery Band, a Grateful Dead-inspired ensemble led by guitarist John Kadlecik. Kadlecik is a DC-area musician known for his work as a guitar-slinging sideman to Grateful Dead members Phil Lesh and Bob Weir in the band Furthur, and as an original co-founder of Dark Star Orchestra. For this engagement, his Mystery Band jams through beloved Grateful Dead classics and related material, offering an evening of exploratory, improvisational rock in an intimate and acoustically rich venue just steps from the White House. The room is designed to welcome any crowd looking for a unique blend of live music, inventive dining, and drink, with both general admission standing and available seating options depending on the event setup.
