JAZZ IS PHSH is a unique and inspiring instrumental tribute to Phish. The supergroup led by Adam Chase (The Chase Brothers), mashes up Phish songs with compositions from legendary artists like Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock and John Coltrane while writing original grooves and passages to completely reimagine a wide array of prolific Phish compositions. The inventive arrangements are jazzy, funky, sophisticated and fun providing an awesome experience for jazz fans and phish fans alike.

The incredible musicianship makes this act a must see experience whether you are familiar with the music or not. With intricate mash-ups with legendary jazz compositions like “What I Say” by Miles Davis, “Sly” by Herbie Hancock, and “A Love Supreme” by John Coltrane, a jazz fan will be able to recognize about the same amount of the show as the avid Phish fan.

Under the musical direction of Adam Chase, the group has become something well beyond any traditional tribute. The goal with most tributes is to sound as similar to the original as possible. With Jazz Is Phsh, musicians from a variety of musical backgrounds are invited into the collective and asked to be themselves and interpret the music in their own unique way. With many of the musicians being introduced to the music through The Chase Brothers, the freedom to reinterpret the music has allowed the direction to have absolute freedom. That freedom in both the compositions and in the improvisation has allowed Jazz Is Phsh to get to the core of what ties the jazz and jam scenes together; improvisational based explorations of melodies, harmonies and rhythm.

With the musicians constantly rotating, every show is unique and a truly once in a lifetime opportunity. Be sure to catch any show you have the opportunity to see.

    Man, lemme tell ya, Phish is the grooviest band around. Their jams are like, outta this world, man. They take you on a cosmic journey with their wicked guitar solos and far-out rhythms. It’s like, total musical freedom, ya know? Every show is a new adventure, never the same trip twice. Phish just taps into this universal vibe, bringing everyone together in peace and harmony. It’s all about the love, man, the love of the music and the community. You get lost in the sound, and it’s like, everything just makes sense.

    I’d love to go to the show, ’cause I love PDX Pipeline and tell everyone about it.

    Well, lemme tell ya somethin’. Bluegrass music, now that’s the real deal. Ain’t nothin’ like them sweet pickin’ sounds of a banjo and a fiddle. It gets in yer bones and makes yer feet start tappin’. Bluegrass is pure and simple, just like the folks who play it. It’s got that down-home feelin’, makes ya think of sittin’ on the porch, sippin’ sweet tea, and watchin’ the world go by. It’s music that tells a story, from the heart, full of soul and tradition. Ain’t no other music can make ya feel so alive and connected to yer roots.

    I’d love to go to the show, b’c I love PDX Pipeline and tell everyone about it.

  14. Kelly on July 23, 2024 at 2:32 pm

    What the he’ll? I gotta see this!
    Thanks for the chance.

  15. Katie Robinson on July 23, 2024 at 2:37 pm

    I love Jazz. I love PHISH. What could be better than both?

  16. Brad on July 29, 2024 at 6:41 pm

    I’ve been to countless Dead show’s but (admittedly) I’ve never seen Phish. Noooooowwww, I’m not saying I dislike them by any means I’m just saying that I’ve never been introduced to a live show other than my ex-roommate who would play 18 minute songs and insist no one talk at like 2:00 am so it left a bitter taste in my mouth. Point being: I think this would be a cool introduction and I’m leaving my mind and ears open to this experience 😉

  17. Kelly on August 13, 2024 at 1:25 pm

    Yahooooo!

  18. Matthew on August 15, 2024 at 4:54 pm

    Count me in!

  19. Aidee on August 17, 2024 at 3:10 pm

    Hi, I would like to take my husband .. he loves jazz, in addition his father was part of a band, playing the saxophone, but sadly he didn’t get to know him.
    Good luck to everyone!.
