Originally rooted in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Johnny Lit’s Jerry Duty is a nationally touring tribute to Jerry Garcia and his music. Fronted by Johnny with his high energy and intuitive approach to performances, it has quickly risen to become a force in the live music scene. Shows have been known to include a rotating cast of all star lineups which have included members of Bob Weirs Ratdog, New Riders of the Purple Sage,JGB as well as female harmony singers, topped with an authentic instrumentation that is easily recognizable and will “take you there”. Their mission is not only to pay tribute to the music performed by Jerry but most importantly deliver the “Experience” which is heavily based on the collective, free flowing improvisation of the artists and audience which is rarely felt today. Their performances are not just concerts but more communal gatherings where fans and other artists come together to celebrate the music and lifestyle they love. Giving them space to share their gifts, dance and express themselves while creating memories and friendships with the like minded that last a lifetime. Just some of the places they can been seen performing at are the Sherman Theatre, Mauch Chunk Opera House, Riverstreet Jazz Café, Pocono Raceway, Yasgurs farm “original Woodstock site”, Park City Music Hall, Grateful Hotel Costa Rica, The Towne Crier, Daryls house, Nectars, Zenbarn, Stonechurch, Sportsmens Tavern, Phantom Power, Deep Dive, Tripps Farm, Stone Church Music Club and 118 North and performances have included headlining spots at Out of the Garden festival, Pineridge festival, Threestival festival, Austin Dam Show festival, OXBO/Keep on growing festival and many more…
