The Vault Is Open. Stream the Grateful Dead in Hi-Res.

Introducing Play Dead. The only place to stream the Grateful Dead vault in high-resolution audio.

Authorized by Grateful Dead Productions and developed with Rhino Entertainment, Play Dead gives Dead Heads access to newly transferred, mastered, and enhanced live recordings, many never heard before. Browse 30 years of performances in chronological order, stream the full Dave's Picks series for the first time, and discover something new every Tuesday, curated by archivist David Lemieux.

This is the biggest tape transfer project in rock 'n roll history. The music was in the room with the band. Now it's in yours.

Brought to you by nugs, Play Dead is available as an addition to a nugs subscription. New subscribers can get the Play Dead x nugs Bundle and save $7/month. Try it out now, and step inside the vault.
