Earlier in 2020, Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio was feeling good about live performances from his solo band. He had intended to ready a new studio for later in the year. Then, with the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, Anastasio was forced to put those plans on hold. Instead, he’s just released Burn, a new live set from the Trey Anastasio Band. We’ll hear music from that as well as selections from Lonely Trip, a solo release from Anastasio, which he recorded entirely in quarantine.
