The Other Ones continued the musical legacy of the Grateful Dead after Jerry Garcia died in 1995, playing many Grateful Dead songs and utilizing a similar jam band style that emphasized musical improvisation. The name of the band was taken from the title of the Grateful Dead song "That's It for the Other One", from 1968's Anthem of the Sun.

In 1999, the Other Ones released The Strange Remain, a two-disc CD recorded live during their 1998 Furthur Festival tour.

To celebrate the release of the album, on February 8, 1999, the Other Ones performed a live webcast (the first for members of the Grateful Dead), from Herbie Herbert's Sy Klopps Studios in San Francisco.{{cite web|url=http://www.otherones.chimeinteractive.com/|title=The Other Ones Web Event 2/8/99|publisher=otherones.chimeinteractive.com |access-date=April 13, 2022}} The event, produced by Chime Interactive (then named Evolve Internet Solutions), featured a live conversation with online fans moderated by Steve Silberman with band members Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, Mark Karan and Dave Ellis. The event began with a live performance of Friend of the Devil, the first time members of the Grateful Dead participated in live streaming.
