Mickey Hart (born Michael Steven Hartman, September 11, 1943) is an American percussionist. He is best known as one of the two drummers of the rock band Grateful Dead. He was a member of the Grateful Dead from September 1967 until February 1971, and again from October 1974 until their final show in July 1995.
With his groundbreaking technique of vibrational expressionism, he merges the worlds of music, art, and the vibratory universe, creating a symphony of creativity. As Mickey paints on Arco, the steel easel, he dances to the beat of his own rhythm, guided by the harmonious interplay of colors and textures.
