Today is Trey Anastasio‘s 58th birthday! Born on September 30th, 1964, the future Phish guitarist grew up in Princeton, NJ and later relocated to Vermont where he met his future bandmates Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, and Page McConnell. Through the seminal jam band’s nearly 40-year run, Big Red has shepherded the group through its ups and downs from breakups through quarantines and into the modern era. With so many accomplishments and a birthday to celebrate, let’s look back at just a few of the many memorable Trey Anastasio moments over the years.
