The Dead Connection

From the Dead’s Piano Bench to Indigo Park

Bruce Hornsby joined the Grateful Dead on keyboards in September 1990, after Brent Mydland’s death, and toured with the band until March 1992. More than three decades later, the Dead family still runs through his music: his latest album, Indigo Park, features Bob Weir and includes two songs co-written with the late Robert Hunter.
