Ghost Light – the growing project featuring Holly Bowling, Tom Hamilton, Steve Lyons, Raina Mullen and Scotty Zwang – has just announced a late-night, post-Phish show on 12/30. Taking place at the newly-opened Sony Hall in Times Square, the nearby after-show will go super late for anyone who is celebrating the New Year a day early. The 1000-person venue looks gorgeous, and while we’ve never had the chance of covering a show there, we look forward to seeing Bowling, Hamilton,

Bob Weir & Wolf Bros ended their 19-date fall tour in great form at the Beacon Theatre in New York City with a pair of unique shows that showcased the Grateful Dead catalogue and beyond. With a Sunday night show bearing no special guests, Bobby showcased his ability to lead the trio through two compelling sets, while on Monday’s tour finale he invited a handful of friends to keep everyone on their toes. Kicking things off with “Jack Straw” is always a good sign, so when Weir

Lockn’ Festival continues to roll out the information surrounding their 2016 festival, and just the other day took to Facebook to announce their daily schedule. As you can see, Phish headlines both Friday and Sunday night, with a very curious omission of a set on Saturday. Maybe they’re gearing up for something secret like they’ve been known to do at their own phestivals? Ween and My Morning Jacket handle headlining duties on Thursday and Saturday, respectively, with fantasti

Lockn’ Festival has more or less generated the same lineup for the past few years. Widespread Panic, String Cheese Incident, whichever Grateful Dead members are playing in whatever band, etc. For 2016, the organizers have opted to go in a slightly different direction, and they’ve done quite an amazing job of doing that. Phish, of course, for two nights is the festival’s main attraction. The band doesn’t do festivals too often anymore, and two nights of two sets will surely be

Widespread Panic will perform at Wanee this year as a part of their 2015 Spring Tour, but the southern jammers also just added two dates at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, NY to the run! We couldn’t be more stoked to have Panic in Brooklyn, bringing a little bit of that southern heat to the northeast. The shows take place April 24 and 25, tickets don’t go on sale ’til January 30th and they will apparently be $75 a piece (no distinguished prices on Panic’s site). Also, just tak

Greensky Bluegrass is one of our highly anticipated acts at Suwannee Hulaween next weekend. Lucky for me, that isn’t the only batch of Greensky I get to look forward to, as a two night run at The Brooklyn Bowl has just been announced. Their newest album If Sorrows Swim is one of my very favorites from the year thus far, and the dudes keep getting better and better with their high-energy, improvisational live show. Be sure to see this dudes in a city near you. #phish #NYC #gre

Phish will almost certainly play Miami for New Years Eve this year. This rumor is (pretty much) confirmed after Madison Square Garden’s NYE event leaked on Ticketmaster. We expect an official announcement some time in the next week. That’s right, Skrillex and Diplo are playing Madison Square Garden according to LiveMusicBlog. The listing has been taken down, but these Ticketmaster leaks are usually pretty reliable. We’ll see you in Miami! #2014 #phish #edm #music #fuego #skri

Only an image this fuzzy is appropriate for a post-Phish Sprocket show article… Brooklyn’s Sprocket played what must have been New York’s craziest Phish after party after the Saturday gig. A packed out Spin in Manhattan was an essential pit stop on the way home from Randall’s Island as the quartet raged through their best set yet. To those who may not be familiar, Sprocket is a Brooklyn jam band who is highly influenced by the likes of Phish. We look up to Phish as paving the

Mountain Jam Festival is right around the corner! While The Allman Brothers, Bob Weir and Gov’t Mule are amongst the festivals headliners, the festival is also boasting some of the most impressive late-nights in the festy circuit. Umphrey’s will go in to the morning time on Thursday, bringing their prog-jam to the mountain for the early birds who show up for Dark Star Orchestra earlier that night. Come Friday, we’re in full-throttle music mode! While a double-dose of bluegras

AURA Music & Arts Festival has opted for new dates for the 2015 festival. The new weekend will be March 6-8, which is close to when the festival was held in 2012 in St. Cloud, Florida. The Spirit of Suwannee Music Park will be the venue for the festival once again, which is just fine with us. The Suwannee is the illest place on planet earth, and we all know this. The new date will hopefully offer some warmer weather, which is nice because it’s DAMN cold. #conspirator #phish #

Mountain Jam has released the daily lineup for their 2014 festival. Umphrey’s McGee gets it going with 2 sets on Thursday alongside Dark Star Orchestra, while Bob Weir takes Friday, Gov’t Mule takes Saturday and the Allman Brothers close it out on Sunday. Friday will get the bluegrass fix, and Saturday night will be the party night as Pretty Lights throws down a highly anticipated late night set. The full daily lineup and ticketing information can be found here. #allmanbrothe

Guys I have good news…AURA is approaching! That’s right gang! Our time away from the Spirit of Suwannee Music Park is coming to an end, thankfully. Today we are going to focus on the one, the only, LOTUS, as we increase your (and our) anticipation for the upcoming AURA Music & Arts Festival. First off, I’d like to say that the band is currently killing it. The setlists have been looking real crunchy as they warm up the  currently freezing United States. Good thing they’re bri

Words by Taylor Cleary [ Image via AURA Music & Arts Festival’s Instagram @auramusicfest ] AURA Music Festival is upon us, and it almost overshadows the other major event of that weekend: Valentine’s Day. But that’s not to say you can’t celebrate both! Here are some V-Day ideas you can take heart in (sorry, had to) with your Suwannee sweetie: Take a nature walk If there’s one thing the Suwannee isn’t short on, it’s nature. Duh. So go enjoy it! Take a break from the whiskey (o

Written by Katrina Valentine The Sunshine music & Blues Festival kicked off at noon at Vinoy Park in St. Petersburg, FL. The location is a beautiful park right along side of the bay where you can pull up your boat to catch some tunes or spot out a couple dolphins swimming alongside the festival.  The two stages played back to back music with no over lapping sets! At 3 PM, the one and only Jimmy Herring played alongside The Ringers and definitely “brought the heat” to a chilly
