Over a decade after the release of Richard Gehr’s The Phish Book, author Parke Puterbaugh has nearly completed Phish: The Biography,
the first narrative history of Phish. The biography is culled from
numerous interviews Puterbaugh conducted with Phish and its
organization while serving as the band’s official in-house writer for
almost ten years. The noted music and travel writer has also
contributed to Rolling Stone, USA Today, Outside, Men's Journal and Stereo Review,
among many others. He has also served as a freelance curatorial
assistant and writer for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in
Cleveland since its inception.
The behind the scenes narrative is expected to hit stores in late May
through The Perseus Books Group, before the band presumably plays its
first summer shows since 2004. As of press time, the group’s only
confirmed appearances will take place at Hampton, VA’s Hampton Coliseum
from March 6-8.
