The Philosophy of Phix (why we do what we do (or did)...if you've never seen us before, or even if you're an old friend, you might want to start here.)

A big hello from Phix!

The summer of 2011 represents TEN YEARS since Phix began our journey in a warehouse in North Boulder. Though it has now been a couple years since the four of us have played together, we all remain friends and some of us still play together frequently in various formations. Most notably, Brian and Chris (bass & drums) have been hitting the road hard with the Colorado-based band Great American Taxi. There is some talk of a Phix reunion before the year is over, and we will be sure to keep you posted on any progress we make toward that goal.

Meanwhile, PHISH (you know, the REAL Phish) has been hitting it hard too and absolutely kicking ass. It has been a pleasure to be seeing them play again, and it has especially been a pleasure to run into so many of our old friends at the shows. Hope to see you out there somewhere!

Dead Phish Orchestra at the Powellapalooza Festival
featuring Michael Kang of String Cheese Incident (September 22-25, 2011)

Some of the members of Phix occasionally play in a project called the Dead Phish Orchestra (visit the page for a bio and some audio tracks to check out). As you may have already guessed, we basically mash up the music of Phish and The Grateful Dead (our other favorite band). This September, we are very excited to have been invited to play at the Powellapalooza Festival in Page, Arizona. Our set is scheduled for Friday 9/23 at about 6pm. Other bands on the bill include Slightly Stoopid as well as Colorado favorites Yonder Mountain String Band and The Motet. And perhaps most exciting of all (for us, at least) is that Michael Kang of the String Cheese Incident will be joining us for our set. We are humbled and thankful that we have been invited to perform at this very special event and that Michael will be joining us.

Recording (and downloading) Phix Shows
Everyone is welcome to record Phix shows (audio or video). If you recorded any of our shows, please send us a copy and we will share it with other folks! Just don't sell it. You can also upload it to archive.org, where there are already many live phix shows you can listen to. Last time we checked, there have been over 125,000 downloads of Phix shows on Archive.org - thanks for listening!
