Two-time Grammy Award–winning bassist Oteil Burbridge has spent more than three decades touring and recording at the highest level of modern music. Most recently known for his role in Dead & Company, Oteil joined Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann, and Mickey Hart alongside John Mayer for ten major tours, helping carry forward the Grateful Dead legacy for a new generation.
A founding member of the early ’90s Southern jazz-fusion group Col. Bruce Hampton & the Aquarium Rescue Unit, Oteil later became the longest-tenured bassist in the history of The Allman Brothers Band. In recognition of his 15-year tenure with the group, he received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012.
Oteil continues to tour extensively with Oteil & Friends, his ever-evolving project featuring a rotating lineup of world-class musicians including Melvin Seals, Jason Crosby, Jeff Chimenti, Steve Kimock, and more. He is also a member of The Toy Factory Project, led by original Marshall Tucker Band drummer Paul T. Riddle, honoring the legacy of guitarist Toy Caldwell and featuring collaborators such as Marcus King, Charlie Starr, and Josh Shilling.
