TAB is mostly made up of his backing band from his 2005 tour, 70 Volt Parade, including keyboardist Ray Paczkowski.
While the overall feel of this band is much along the lines of Phish-style jams with Trey taking the reins while the band backs him up, the style of the music is a little more accessible, and not as eccentric and signature as Phish songs. Using a brass section Trey brings a whole new extension of sounds to play with in the band's jam sessions.
TAB plays mostly Trey's solo material from his self title album released in 2002, 2005's "Shine", and his most recent album "Bar 17", but they've also played a number of Phish tunes.
TAB made its debut in Atlanta, Georgia, with a two night run at The Tabernacle, before keeping a low profile for most of 2006. TAB opened for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers during the months of June and August, with one headlining show in late June at the Jazz Aspen Snowmass.
TAB took the summer off, as Anastasio reunited with former Phish bassist Mike Gordon, and toured with the Benevento/Russo Duo.
TAB will enbark on its first headlining tour in the fall of 2006, supporting Anastasio’s latest solo album Bar 17.

Trey Anastasio Band Lyrics
We have lyrics for these tracks by Trey Anastasio Band:
Alaska I always had to tell her to relax And the cat…
Money Love and Change I've got a minute, sixty tiny pieces of Your silver dollar,…
Show of Life It's no easy road, there's struggle and strife We find ours…

If you didn’t see the whole show, Trey gives a long thanks to everyone involved at the end of the last song and forgets to mention Tony. This clip picks up after Trey is done. Love how Tony brings it up and Treys rebound. Tony’s banter over the Beacon jams was classic. Sad to see a member of the Trey family depart. He was such an key piece to the whole. RIP Tony!

I am so happy watch this again but absolutely crushed watching this now knowing I never get to see Tony slap out his amazing bass lines again. Rest in peace brother.

Thank you for your gift, Tony. You are a true groove merchant, RIP

Yes, Tony was the pulse, the pump, the pop and the shuffle. I’m so sad that he’s no longer ‘with us’ but his legacy is incredibly amazing and prolific. Trey, and all of us were so ridiculously blessed to have his participation and his love of music to enjoy. RIP Tony.

So the first time I saw TAB was in 1999 at the state theater in Portland Maine, Trey did a solo first set that was very intimate and personal. The second set was the first time I ever heard/saw Tony. This is the song that they opened that set with and I ams till to this day blown away by what I heard. They have obviously dialed in this song since then but honestly it was just absolute fire the first time I saw it live. Thanks for everything!!!!
