Artist Info
BERTHA: Grateful Drag

BERTHA: Grateful Drag are the world’s first and only drag-infused Grateful Dead tribute band, born in Tennessee in 2023 as a joyful, defiant response to anti-drag legislation. What began as a one-night experiment quickly sold out, caught the attention of Rolling Stone and the San Francisco Chronicle, and grew into an all-star, Nashville-based roots collective.
Blending high-octane late 70's / early 80's Dead sound Dead energy with powerhouse female vocals, BERTHA delivers the classic two-set, three-hour Grateful Dead experience complete with fresh setlists every night. Each show also features local drag or burlesque performers and raises funds for LGBTQ+ organizations, turning every performance into both a celebration and a cause. Equal parts jam-band devotion and queer joy, BERTHA has first-timers and Deadheads alike waving that flag wide and bi.
