Original members Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann will be joined by Warren Haynes and Jeff Chimenti for around 20 shows in the Spring. Exact dates will be confirmed in the next few weeks.
The group, which last reformed for a benefit concert for US President-elect Barack Obama in October, now goes under the name The Dead.
Former Grateful Dead guitarist and singer Jerry Garcia died in 1995.
