Over the past four decades, composer/guitarist/vocalist Trey Anastasio has forged a singular, multi-faceted career, winning acclaim and garnering accolades across genres and disciplines including rock, classical, musical theatre, and more. He is a founding member of Phish, one of today’s most successful and innovative rock bands. As a solo artist, Anastasio has released over two dozen studio and live albums and has toured extensively with the Trey Anastasio Band,
Classic TAB, and other iterations. In 2020, Anastasio recorded and released the pandemic-era album Lonely Trip, followed by his first album of solo acoustic material, Mercy, in 2022. Those two albums generated much of the material found on Evolve. Anastasio’s latest release is Atriums, a six-chapter song suite of ambient, instrumental guitar compositions originally conceived of and recorded for Phish’s Sphere run.
Anastasio has performed and collaborated with such artists as Bruce Springsteen, the Grateful Dead, Dave Matthews, Herbie Hancock (whose 2005 “Gelo na Montanha” earned Anastasio a Grammy® nomination), Carlos Santana, Toots and the Maytals, B.B. King, The Roots, and – as part of the trio Oysterhead – Les Claypool of Primus and Stewart Copeland of The Police. He co-wrote the music for the Broadway musical Hands on a Hardbody, which received a Tony nomination for “Best Original Score” in 2013. This summer, Anastasio inducted Steely Dan into the Songwriters Hall Of Fame.
An accomplished composer and arranger, Anastasio has performed his original compositions with numerous symphonies, including The National Symphony Orchestra, The Boston Pops at Tanglewood, the New York Philharmonic at Carnegie Hall, and many more. In 2023, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Anastasio among the greatest guitarists of all time.
