Standing on the Neon Moon

Standing on the Neon Moon is a honky tonk take on the Grateful Dead with Moonlight Special — an all-star band where the Grateful Dead slips into a neon-lit honky tonk and never quite leaves. Featuring Ashton Slater, Jonathan Sheldon, Michael Russeck, Josh Keesan, Matt Bunsen, and Clinton Clark, Moonlight Special reshapes Dead songs with twang, sway, and a little cosmic country dust, while turning country classics inside out through a psychedelic lens. The band leans into extended jams and that unmistakable Dead spirit, reimagined with pedal steel and fiddle. Whether you come to two-step or sway, the music will never stop.
