Deadphish Orchestra

DeadPhish Orchestra Brings a Seamless Web of Phish and Dead to The Parrot Stage

Colorado quartet The Deadphish Orchestra  will appear at The Green Parrot with shows at 5:30, 9:00 and 11:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 24th.

Close friends who have played music together for many years, hey had played Grateful Dead songs together, and they had played Phish songs together. But they got to wondering what would happen if they tried to merge the music of these two bands, the Granddaddies and Daddies of the jamband scene.

While these two bands have their surface similarities, most fans realize that their actual musical styles are quite different. The Grateful Dead are an earthy, folky, bluesy band where Phishis sharper around the edges–funky and more aggressive. But both bands have an improvisational approach to their live shows, and it is in that spontaneity where the magic really happens.

The guys in DPO have posed themselves a unique challenge in merging the two styles. Set lists end up with segues that look like Divided Sky > Morning Dew > Divided Sky, or Help > Slip > Frankenstein. Or how about Mike’s Song > Stella Blue > Weekapaug Groove. Or even stranger, like My Friend, My Friend of the Devil…or It Must Have Been The Roses Are Free. You can see that between the vast repertoires of the two bands, the possibilities are endless.

It’s just about as much fun as humans are allowed to have, a seamless web of Phish and Dead to split open and melt your face.
