Grateful Webmaster is about making life easier for artists and entrepreneurs rooted in the jam band community. Helmed by Brian Sofer—a fellow Deadhead whose story began at his first Grateful Dead show in 1989—GW is built on a deep understanding of the connections that drive this world. From life on the road as a touring fan to becoming Widespread Panic’s first webmaster (1997–2006), and ultimately launching Buzzword in 2020, Brian’s journey has always been about weaving passion into purpose.
