nugs is a San Francisco-based platform that specializes in live music content, offering streaming, downloadable live recordings, and pay-per-view webcasts. It began in 1993 as a fan site for authorized live music trading and shifted to a professional model in 2002 when Phish partnered with Brad Serling to release official downloads of every concert they played, a move followed by other major artists. Over time, the platform has distributed official recordings for artists including Metallica, Dave Matthews Band, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tim McGraw, Grateful Dead, and Pearl Jam, and has expanded into hi-res streaming and CD-on-demand for live performances. nugs serves artists looking for legitimate, centralized channels to distribute their live performances and fans seeking sanctioned access to those performances via streaming, downloads, and webcasts. In 2026, the company announced Play Dead, a Grateful Dead-branded app focused on hi-res streaming of the Grateful Dead vault.
