Talvez maior lançamento indie do ano (em número de faixas), “Day of the Dead” contempla e celebra a carreira da banda norte-americana The Grateful Dead, em projeto curado pelo trio Aaron Dessner, Bryce Dessner e Josh Kaufman, do excelente The National.
O projeto terá releituras de 59 faixas divididas em três discos feitas por artistas contemporâneos e tem lançamento previsto para 20 de maio.
Artistas e bandas tipo Wilco, Justin Vernon, The War on Drugs, Flaming Lips, Mumford and Sons, Courtney Barnett, Sharon Van Etten, Lee Ranaldo, Perfume Genius e Kurt Vile emprestaram seus talentos ao tributo, que aos poucos vem tendo algumas de suas canções divulgadas.
A mais recente é “Terrapin Station (Suite)”, que conta com as participações dos músicos Josh Kaufman, Conrad Doucette, Sō Percussion & Brooklyn Youth Chorus, além da dupla Daniel Rossen e Christopher Bear, do Grizzly Bear. Aaron e Bryce, dupla do National, também participou.
