Dead Ahead Night 1 ♥️⚡️💙

These are just a few meaningful moments from the last few cycles. As I get older I learn how to savor much better than I used to. I hold the sweet moments in my mouth like a jolly rancher and never bite it. Why rush through such moments when they are already so fleeting? Seeing my beautiful wife and children become friends with such amazing musicians like @giovannihidalgoofficial and @karlpperc who are also such spiritually powerful beings couldn’t make me any happier. Just look at the way Kavi looks at Giovanni. That’s rare. ————————————————-We are the conjurers of joy! The conjurers of Rhythm which IS life!!! Our whole lives and livelyhoods DEPEND ON THE MAGIC. And they know it well. My heart is full. Thank you @reyahart for making Kavi’s breakfasts so great! #oteilfromegypt @deadaheadfest #alux #aslanisnotatamelion #peaceandlove #thechampisinthering #thatswhatthejerryshirtsays #prowrestlingforever

Oteil & Friends @deadaheadfest 1.13.24 🚀

A dedication to the Mayan elves, the Aluxes at @deadaheadfest 🪄✨ #oteilandfriends #magicisreal

To all of the fans, thank you so much for such good vibes at @deadaheadfest last night! I hope you could really feel what we were trying to do. And thank you to this incredible group of musicians that agree to let me take the wheel and come on my insane ride! I drive crazy. What a dream team! Last night was part of a steady build that it feels like Oteil & Friends is on. It’s terribly exciting! But we need YOUR energy, YOUR love or the spaceship never gets off the ground. It’s just like Santa’s sleigh in the movie Elf. We can feel that you are pulling for us and then we can fly! There’s Dragon with matches that’s loose on the town! One Love 🙏🏽♥️ #oteilandfriends #deadahead

Things are sounding really good! Can’t wait to hit the stage with a full house! #oteilfromegypt #deadahead #ticktockticktock

Calling all magical beings! We all have the Elves, Alux, Aziza, Angels, Faeries, Wizards, Witches, Centaurs, Ogres, Giants, Dragons, Djinn, Goblins, Gnomes and Ghosts, both light and dark, inside of us. I AM the Dragon. I was born in the Year Of The Dragon. THIS year is the Year Of The Dragon. I take the Wizard as my human form. Comes A Time to realize, acknowledge and EMBRACE who you really are. Dress rehearsal is over. Now it is “Show”time. Time to show yourselves. To yourselves and others. The stakes are higher than you think. I predict you will see the impossible in the next few days. Some of us already are. Please tell your story in the comments below. That thing or series of things that happened that are so against the odds that it would be considered impossible by muggles. Now you have been told. Words have power. If you don’t believe in Magic Words then you might want to think about why they call it SPELLING. #oteilfromegypt #theyearofthedragon #comeoutofthecloset #youwillsee #thankyoucolbruce #thankyoumom #thankyoukofi #thankyoudrbarnette #narnia #middleearth #tictocktictock #ufotimemachine #choosethelight #chooselove #dumbledoresarmy

It only took 11 minutes from when I posted about Papa Elf to get a miracle. Try to tell @beadworkbyjenny that magic is not real! Haven’t you seen what she is creating??? That should be proof enough but if it isn’t, we will show you more!!! I am officially sending up the Bat Signal. Some of you won’t even see it though it is plain as the sun in the sky. And some of you will just deny that it is the Bat Signal. But the rest….. #oteilfromegypt #ancientkemeticwizard #amenthehiddenone #1212 #iamnotplayingaround #youaregonnasee

Happy Birthday Bill Burbridge aka Papa Elf! The Icelandic Elves have four special days. New Years Eve, Summer Solstice, Dec 24th (my mom’s birthday), and Jan 6th (My dad’s birthday & the 12th day of Christmas.) I believe this is why the Elves made themselves known to us while we were recording in Iceland. I make offerings to them on these days. I apologize for missing New Year’s Eve this time! But I did catch it this morning right after midnight. I speak to them out loud and I do it respectfully. You might want to try it. Especially today. Though any day is fine. Make it as nice as you can with what you have available. Thats vodka btw. And they love kind bud. And seriously, if you do this do not joke, be flippant or disrespectful. They’re Elves. Believe me you will pay and it won’t be subtle. Happy Birthday Bill Burbridge. Thank you for giving me life, a thirst to read and search like a detective, and a deep love for music. I know you said you didn’t believe in magic but you married my mom who is so obviously a good witch and you put the second most magic thing on earth first in your spiritual life. And that is music. Now that you are on the other side you know that I am right. Please say hi to Kofi, Col Bruce and Dr Barnette for me! Pic 1: my dad Pic 2: my offering on the summer solstice 2023 (I’m scoring extra points with them posting this pic!) Pic 3: my offering Dec 24th 2023 Pic 4: my offering Jan 6th 2024 This pic was also taken at exactly 12:30 am. Those little things matter. Like seasonings in food…… #ineedamiracle #oteilfromegypt #happybirthdaydad #papaelf And special thanks to @jasoncrosbymusic for researching the Elves while we were in Iceland recording and finding out about their 4 Holy Days on the last night of our trip. 🎅🏾

Good morning 2024. Enjoy each moment like this if you are lucky enough to. We have to endure darkness and curveballs in life. So if the sun comes out for you even for just a few minutes make sure and get it on your face if you can. Nigel and I got to have this moment together this morning. And I am truly grateful for it. #oteilfromegypt #peaceandlove #lovecanuseanyroadpavedbyevil #becauseitismagic

By the time I started to make records around 1992 CD’s had taken over. This is the first time I made my own record on vinyl and it really surprised me what a strong feeling it gave me! It was kind of like a session I did “recently” where we recorded to actual 2 inch tape. When the engineer rewound the tape I forgot about the sound that it made and almost got vertigo it was such a surprise. Being born in 1964 I clearly remember both 45’s and even 78’s. Some of you might have to look up what those were! Double albums were always special too. So this was a real treat to open because it’s the first time it was actually mine. I really hope you all enjoy this offering! It comes from the bottom of my heart. #lovelyviewofheaven #vinyl

While I have had many tears today I am so grateful to have been able to be in New Orleans today for this Second Line for my friend @russell_batiste. This is one of the many reasons that New Orleans is my favorite city in America. Drums and rhythm are the heart and soul of NOLA. The legacy that Russell left in New Orleans and the world in general is so large. Even larger than I realized. We’ll miss u so much Russell. Thank you for the incredible music and unparalleled memories. 📸 @billy_iuso and others #doubleclutch #clutchin’

It is with a super heavy heart that I write this post saying goodbye to one of the rarest of super humans that I have been blessed enough to play with and call a friend. If you knew @russell_batiste then you know there are no words to describe his talents or his insanely funny personality. Some people live with their knobs turned to 11. I’m pretty sure that I never laughed any harder than when we shared these times you see in these pictures. Thank you @pagemcconnell for bringing us together. I was REALLY counting on us getting together with @adamzimmon again. When you’re about to do another Vida Blue tour the sense of anticipation you have is off the charts. You know that you are about to laugh as hard as you ever will and feel so good making music. That and family is what life is all about. Be free my brother. Be free. And please say hey to Kofi for me…….. #neworleansfinest #legend 📸 @rene_huemer @marcmillmanphotos

To all the real Deadheads and Deadfreaks out there: Please help out brother Freddie McKiernan’s family if you can. This man was a true head who raised his kids on Shakedown St. I can’t think of anyone more Deadicated than he. He was kindness personified. Those of you that knew him please testify in the comments!!! https://gofund.me/9271f079. #helpontheway #fareyouwell #cousinfred #nfa ——————————————————————————- From Freddie’s children: Our father and grandfather was not your typical dad. He was a true hippie at heart, a traveler of both roads and melodies. His love for his people was unparalleled, and he spent his life spreading good vibes and leaving an imprint everywhere he went.  His love for his Children knew no bounds. He was their rock, their storyteller, and their greatest source of unconditional love and wisdom. He took great joy in watching them grow, teaching life lessons, and creating memories that will forever shape their lives. His legacy lives on through Simon, Koa, Hinun, Blue, Krista and his six grandchildren, As well as leaving them behind he also leaves behind His daughter in law Kima, His long time partner and Mother of his children Kashia, His Wife Andrea, his 3step children and 2 step grandchildren .

The @capitoltheatre is such a special venue to me. And to get to play there with @melvinseals makes everyone in the band feel so lucky to be alive. Last night was extra special since we had @officialjohnamos rail riding and singing along with us. He hung with us till late in the evening, graciously taking pictures with everyone. He was America’s Dad to all of us young black kids in the 70’s. What an honor. Thanks to the AMAZING crowd last night and to all the kids that were jamming with us at Garcia’s At The Cap earlier that day. It made me really miss my kids! #oteilandfriends 📷: @blacksteinphotography

Sometimes you meet someone that is just perfect. James’ playing and singing were matched by his kindness. My heart goes out to his family. I have so many musical brothers and sisters that I know are feeling deep sadness today. And also deep gratitude that we got to play with him on and offstage. Please love hard and pursue your dreams TODAY. Don’t waste any more time! Thank you @jamescaseysax for spreading so much joy and shining so much of your light so generously. You made such a big difference in our lives. You helped me make some of my most precious dreams come true. I’ll never forget.

59 trips around the sun. ……………………………………………. It all rolls into one And nothing comes for free There’s nothing you can hold For very long And when you hear that song Come crying like the wind It seems like all this life Was just a dream

“Stella Blue” off my upcoming album ‘Lovely View of Heaven’ is out now on all streaming platforms. Watch the official music video on my YouTube channel —> Link in bio

Well it’s finally here! The first single from my new album ‘Lovely View Of Heaven’ has arrived. I truly hope you connect with this rendition of “Stella Blue”. Even though I am a late comer to this music I have been through so much personally during the last eight years that I have been learning and growing with these songs. I feel like I have some very real emotions that flow into and back out of these compositions. From the loss of my brother Kofi, my dad, and two of my biggest mentors, Col. Bruce Hampton and Dr. Jim Barnette, to the births of both my children, all these things are baked into these renditions. Many thanks to Maureen Hunter for painting the album cover for me. She finished the artwork while watching us record it from a secret YouTube link to Floki Studios in Iceland. It was very meaningful to me to have her blessing, support and creative contributions to this record. As much as I hate the cold I found Iceland to be a completely magical place. I think you’ll be able to hear the magic of the Icelandic Elves in these sound waves. It was the most fun recording session I’ve ever been a part of. So many thanks to the great musicians that made this dream a reality. What a team! Steve Kimock - Guitars Jason Crosby - Keys & Violin John Kimock - Drums Tom Guarna - Guitars Pete Lavezzoli - Drums Adam Tenenbaum - Guitars and Space Jaden Lehman - Guitar Kofi Burbridge - Flute Alan Evans - Producer/Engineer Thanks so much to my manager Ben Baruch and his whole team at 11E1even Group for making all of this happen so seamlessly. “Stella Blue” available on all streaming platforms now along with the official music video, and limited edition vinyl available to pre order → Link in bio Peace & Love, Oteil ☮️ & ❤️

This Days Between has been very surreal and beautiful for me. It started out on Jerry’s Birthday with a full moon at @fullmoonresort teaching music and mysticism at the 10th anniversary of @rootsrockrevival. I’ve watched some of these students grow up from the age my kids are now to selling out the Beacon Theater and assuming teaching duties! We also started out with our first new episode of the @comes.a.time.podcast with the two and only @paulstamets and Dr. Pam Kryskow. Our two favorite mycologists! Then today I got to see my first ever test pressing of a record that I did. It’s the collection of Garcia/Hunter ballads that I did in Iceland last December. Oh yeah and I just remembered that today was the Lion’s Gate Portal! What a week! Thanks for so much inspiration Jerry. And thanks to all of my musical family both on and offstage. We’re all in this together. #thedaysbetween 💀🌹⚡️. 1st photo by @_phatslimsexy_

I guess the magic energy is still in the air. I think @melvinseals actually levitated two of the stages we played off the ground. Thanks so much to @kimock_official @johnmorgankimock @tomguarnaofficial @lamarwilliamsjr and @jasoncrosbymusic for making this one of the most surprise filled mini runs I’ve ever had.

This first picture is what it’s all about for me. It’s all of you! Everyone with their hands in the air. YOU are the real Grateful Dead as much as all the musicians that have stood in those spots made sacred by the blessed original members. Thanks for taking this amazing ride, this continuation with us for the last eight years as we do our best to keep that spirit, that inspired idea alive. There have been so many milestones for me. I lost my older brother, my father, and two of my biggest mentors. But I also got adopted into this Grateful Dead family, started playing my first stadium tours, and got to watch my kids grow up on the road with this band, all culminating in a whirlwind tour that raged like a forest fire out of control. What a ride! We’ve ALL been through a lot these last few years and it has made me realize how precious our moments are. All of us. Together. In my opinion what we did this summer is one of the best ways to express how truly grateful we are for being alive. Thank you for allowing me to facilitate us all SHAKING OUR BONES! #deadandcompany #gratefuldead #thankyoujerry #oteilfromegypt #magicisreal #loveismagic 📷 @jayblakesberg @joshuahitchensphotography

It’s still hard for me to believe this is my life. But I’m so thankful for it all. I have always let my life proceed by its own design even when I had different plans. I’m pretty sure this tour has surprised us in the band as much as any of the fans. Chemistry is something that can never be predicted. It happens when you don’t expect it and many times it doesn’t when you do. I can honestly say that the 3rd night at Folsom Field is the most fun I’ve ever had in this band and I couldn’t even see the drones! What an incredible feeling. A huge thank you to Dave Matthews for adding his magic and joy to ours. And a huge thank you to my Jess, Nigel and Kavi for making it the perfect night by being there with me. A huge thank you to the amazing guys in this band and all the ones that came before us new guys. And of course, the biggest thank you to all the incredible fans that make our community so special! #deadandcompanytour #finaltour #oteilfromegypyt #deadandcompany #oteilyourface #gratefuldead #nocoincidence #thereisafountain 📷: @alivecoverage

I only recently got heavy into Pro Wrestling but I am a huge fan now. And the Iron Sheik (@therealironsheik) was one of the most over the top characters that I have seen in this game. I fell off my stool when he liked one of my family wrestling posts. He lived two or three amazing lives. Condolences to his family and all the families that loved Khosrow Ali Vaziri. And thank you to @pagemagen for teaching me more about this amazing man. Do yourself a favor and watch the documentary about his life called The Sheik and his recent WWE Legends episode on A&E. What a story! #respectthelegend #theironsheik #camelclutchforever

Dear music community and beyond, Our dear friend Skerik needs our help!! While on tour in April, Skerik woke up in the morning with a seemingly normal tweak in his shoulder and neck. It quickly escalated into a much worse situation and after a gig that night, he could barely move. It's a strange injury that after seeing medical doctors, acupuncturists, chiropractors, rolfers, massage therapists, there is still no clear answer as to what is going on. As of now, he hasn't worked in 6 weeks and has continued to have to cancel major gigs and tours. Unfortunatley as musicians, we do not have sick leave or paid time off, any time we are sick or injured we take a loss both on income and expenses. We greatly appreciate any help financially, or if you can't help by donating, please share this far and wide! I need Skerik like I need New Orleans.

What’s up y’all!!! I wanted to take a minute to shout out a few friends who are making my life wonderful and my tour extra magical! Many deep thanks to @beadworkbyjenny for this AMAZING new strap. The pictures are worth a thousand words so I will let them speak for themselves. Also to @strangernajjar and @sandbergguitars for this amazing new bass. Notice the new phat neck pickup and the Ankh they put on the pick guard. The bass and new strap were meant for each other! Also a big shout out to @donickcary for helping me find a store where I could get some face paint in LA. I guess it’s just a coincidence that the place they found for me bears my son’s name. I’m doing face paint every night this tour. Shout out to all those wearing face paint in front of me at the shows. I SEE YOU! And thanks to @chloekeiliaweir for doing my face paint for me until @jessbburbridge gets here!#oteilfromegypt #deadandcompany #gratefuldead #allmanbrothersband #colbrucehampton #comesatimepodcast #facepaint #psychedelic #peacetribe #magicisreal #ironsheik #rootsoffight #haveagoodtrip
