AMFIBIAN RE-EMERGES FROM
PHISHY WATERS
Phish
Lyricist Tom Marshall Ignites Ever-Changing All-Star Lineup
for Long-Awaited CD, Limited Number of
Special Live Performances in Spring
PRINCETON, NJ
-- After a three-year hiatus, AMFIBIAN, the band that spawned from the
soul of Phish lyricist Tom Marshall, has re-emerged with a long-awaited
new album, FROM THE ETHER, and a handful of very special live
shows to celebrate its arrival.
Marshall�s
comfortably unconventional lyrical vision is complemented this time by
co-writer Chris Metaxas's simplistically elegant musical framework and
the blazing hot guitar licks of former Lenny Kravitz and Spin Doctors
collaborator Anthony Krizan, plus the rock-solid rhythm section of
drummer Joe Larsen and bassist Bob Kay. Vermont friends
Trey Anastasio and Seth Yacovone added a little lyrical and musical
nudge. Riding on a melodic center while flirting with a ferociously
evil undercurrent, FROM THE ETHER creeps up from the bottom, only to
pull you under with a poetic yank.

bio
Five years ago, Phish lyricist Tom
Marshall and his longtime writing partner, Phish front man Trey
Anastasio, got together in Vermont with high school friends Matt Kohut and
Peter Cottone to practice a number of Marshall/Anastasio songs originally
intended for Phish. The band, called Utalk, was to have a small New England
tour to play the new songs. Their first practice failed for various reasons
-� none of which had to do with the quality and urgency of the material. On
their fateful ride home to Central New Jersey, Marshall, Kohut and Cottone
decided the music must be heard, but a different band needed to be
assembled.
AMFIBIAN
was about to be born.
