Buttonball Barn Egremont, MA

The Wheel makes their Buttonball Barn debut in Egremont, MA on Friday, May 22nd. Doors 6pm, show at 7:30pm. This a beautiful place in the woods 45 min from Albany. They have lodging on site too! A special place for Andy as it’s right around the corner from KGBR where he takes flying lessons. Tickets here> ShowSlinger

The Wheel brings the music of the Grateful Dead to life with an authentic sound, deep grooves, and a driving energy that keeps the room moving all night long. Hailing from New York’s Capital Region, this standout tribute band delivers a show that feels less like a recreation—and more like a living, breathing continuation of the Dead’s spirit.

Anchored by a rock-solid rhythm section, The Wheel lays down a big, danceable foundation while soaring guitar and keys weave together expressive, improvisational solos that capture the magic of the original music. From high-energy jams to more nuanced, blissful moments, the band moves effortlessly between power and subtlety.

With rich, dynamic vocals and a clear love for the music, The Wheel creates the kind of immersive live experience where every song stretches, evolves, and invites the audience along for the ride.

Whether you’re a dedicated Deadhead or just love great live music, this is a show built for dancing, listening, and getting lost in the groove.
