Music

Don Was and the Pan-Detroit Ensemble

Don Was brings the Pan-Detroit Ensemble for a seated concert shaped by a career that spans five decades, blending Detroit-inspired jazz, juke joint blues, and laid-back funk. The set features music from their debut, Groove in the Face of Adversity, and includes a live performance of the Grateful Dead’s Blues for Allah to mark the album’s 50th anniversary and reflect Don’s long collaboration with Bobby Weir. This event is for ages 16 and up, and anyone younger must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Angel Parking, if offered, can be added as an optional add-on during ticket checkout.
