PHISH swims back to the Jones Beach Amphitheater July 12, 2013 … http://PHISH.jonesbeach.comPhish formed in Burlington, Vt. , in the mid-1980s, and has remained in its current lineup — guitarist Trey Anastasio, bassist Mike Gordon, keyboard player Page McConnell and drummer and part-time Lincolnville resident Jon Fishman — since 1986. Over the course of nearly three decades the band has released 14 studio albums and countless live recordings, including the iconic 1993 concept album “Rift,” 1996’s “Billy Breathes” which is the band’s highest-charting album, and most recently, 2009’s well-received “Joy.” Phish remains one of the world’s most popular live acts, routinely selling out shows all over North America and Europe.
In 1997, Ben & Jerry’s created an ice cream flavor, Phish Food, named for the band. In 2011, the band donated $1.2 million in proceeds from a September concert to benefit Hurricane Irene flood relief in Vermont
