“Rhino is a company of Dead Heads at heart, but today our hearts are broken by the immense loss of Phil Lesh. A musician of boundless creativity and curiosity, he leaves behind a body of work that is a universe unto itself. At a time when the Grateful Dead’s influence can be felt more deeply than ever before, his art will continue to live on through all of us. Endlessly interested and interesting, Phil never stopped searching for the sound. It will always be an honor and privilege to share his work with the world.”
Mark Pinkus, President, Rhino Records
“We join the millions of Dead Heads around the world in mourning the passing of Phil Lesh. As one of the Grateful Dead’s founding members and their longstanding bassist, Phil is an indelible rock giant who leaves behind a legacy of great songs, great performances, and great community.”
