Singer-songwriter Nicki Bluhm will perform three shows across two nights at this year's Song Summit, including a tribute to the late Grateful Dead co-founder Bob Weir, who died in January at age 78.

Bluhm's appearances on Friday, Aug. 28, and Saturday, Aug. 29, span a jam collective, a live film soundtrack, and the Weir memorial show. The sixth annual Song Summit runs Aug. 27–29 across downtown Park City venues, with its new home base at Library Field, as we reported July 23.

Friday, Aug. 28: Mountain Jam collective

"Mountain Jam: A Song Summit Collective" takes the stage at 7 p.m. at The Marquis, 427 Main St. Bluhm will be joined by guitarist Eric Krasno, My Morning Jacket drummer Patrick Hallahan, New Orleans keyboardist Ivan Neville, bassist Tony Hall, and Terrapin Family Band members Ross James and Alex Koford.

Bluhm made her Song Summit debut in 2025 performing with the Terrapin Family Band, the ensemble founded by the late Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh. She credits Lesh with connecting her to many of the musicians she'll share the stage with this month.

"I met Eric Krasno through Phil and I met Ross James through Phil," Bluhm told the Park Record. "Phil was such a steward of upcoming musicians by gathering people together and providing opportunities for us to play together."

Saturday, Aug. 29: Ski film and Weir tribute

At 3 p.m., Bluhm moves to the Jim Santy Auditorium at the Park City Library for a live soundtrack performance accompanying Chris Benchetler's ski documentary "Mountains of the Moon," a winter-sport art film shot mostly at night in 2025. She'll perform alongside Krasno, James, Koford, and pianist Holly Bowling, known for her solo Grateful Dead interpretations.

Then at 7 p.m., Bluhm returns to The Marquis for "Ace Back to Back: A Tribute to Bobby Weir," presented by Aiko & Friends. The show's title references Weir's 1972 debut solo album "Ace," which featured his Dead bandmates and produced concert staples like "Playing in the Band" and "Cassidy." Bluhm will perform alongside Aiko, the band fronted by Song Summit founder and Park City resident Ben Anderson, plus Krasno and James.

Weir, who co-founded the Grateful Dead in 1965, died Jan. 10 from lung issues after a cancer battle.

He was 78.

Weir himself performed at the Song Summit in 2023 with his band Wolf Brothers. Anderson has played in Aiko since 1984, when the Nashville-formed jam band grew out of a shared love for the Dead. He founded the Song Summit, now in its sixth year.
