From the Promoter

Before co-founding Moby Grape, the legendary rock group from the ‘60s, Don Stevenson and Jerry Miller were band mates in the Seattle group called “The Frantics” In 1966, virtually at the very beginning of the San Francisco music scene, Don and Jerry relocated to San Francisco and, with the addition of Bob Mosley, Skip Pence and Peter Lewis, formed what would become “Moby Grape”. Don Stevenson held the beat on the drums and Jerry Miller was the lead guitarist in the four-guitar band. All five band members sang, wrote and played their own original music which was a new and innovative combination of rock, blues, jazz and country according to the Rolling Stone. The group was dubbed the “Beatles of San Francisco”.
