Deadhead High
Learn and Live the Dead.
Built by fans, for the next generation of heads.
No gatekeeping. No right way in. Just listen to the music play.
Finding today's song...
A daily song lens, paired show, and quick trivia question.
You are not staring at a database.
Start with a reason
Open the app and get a show worth hearing, a path worth following, or a thread to pull when the catalog feels too big.
Keep your trail
Check in what you heard, mark what you attended, save favorites, leave notes, and build a personal map of where the music took you.
Find the next door
Every show can point somewhere else: another era, a famous sequence, a hidden gem, or the version someone would hand you after saying, “try this.”
Choose a doorway.
Start with a guided path, a daily ritual, a show tracker, or your own trail through the music.
The map starts with the Grateful Dead, then leaves room for the branches listeners naturally follow: Jerry Garcia Band, Dead & Company, Phil & Friends, RatDog, solo Jerry, and beyond.
Listening Paths.
Open a route to see why these shows belong together, what to listen for, and how far you’ve gotten.
Routes or custom build
Start with curated routes, or describe the thread you want Deadhead High to shape from the catalog and sourced setlists.
The Wheel.
When you don’t know what to play next, let the Wheel pick a show with a real reason behind it.
The Wheel favors the kind of shows people recommend for a reason: famous peaks, historical moments, and hidden gems.
Daily Dead.
A Song of the Day, a paired show, and one daily question. Short enough to come back for; deep enough to pull you in.
Test Your Head.
A quick way to pick up context without walking into a gatekeeping contest.
Lights.
Psychedelic visuals for listening sessions: space drift, liquid color, stars, mandalas, and sunshine when the music wants a room.
The show list.
Search by date, venue, city, year, era, song, or tag. Check-ins and notes stay synced across the whole site.
Start typing to filter instantly, or hit Show All to browse the imported catalog. Anything you check here also checks off inside Paths, Daily, Wheel, and My Dead.
Your trail.
Shows listened, shows attended, favorites, ratings, notes, badges, and the little markers you leave behind.
Not a player. A map.
Deadhead High keeps the experience beautiful, structured, and personal — then sends listeners to the right source when they’re ready to play.
Deadhead High is built around the thing Relisten and Archive do not fully solve: a guided, personal, collectible way to move through a massive live catalog.
Think of it as a living concert poster, a listening journal, and a way to keep your own trail through the music. It does not try to trap you in another player. Deadhead High helps you choose what to hear, then gets you to the music.
Show availability and listening links come from Archive and Relisten. Setlist data is sourced from gdshowsdb, an MIT-licensed project by Jeff Smith.
