Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio brought his new Trey Anastasio Trio lineup featuring TAB bassist Dezron Douglas and Phish bandmate Jon Fishman on drums back to Denver’s Mission Ballroom on Saturday for the second of three shows. After loading Friday’s concert with new material, the three-piece kept the trend going on Saturday by unveiling four more originals.

Even besides the debuts, Anastasio kept the focus on songs from the last four years with three Ghosts Of The Forest tunes, three off 2020’s Lonely Trip and the title track from 2022’s mercy all making the setlist on Saturday. Of the remaining five songs, three came from the “2.0” era leaving just two premiered in the 20th Century and each toward the end of the ’90s.

Anastasio, Fishman and Douglas opened Saturday’s first set with Lonely Trip rocker “I Never Needed You Like This Before.” The trio then offered the first public performance of “I Never Left Home,” a song from Lonely Trip played during the first The Beacon Jams show at a live audience-less Beacon Theatre in New York City on October 9, 2020. “I Never Left Home” featured a power trio jam ala the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream as did the ensuing versions of “Spin” and “Undermind.”

The title track from Phish’s 2004 studio album dropped into “Ghosts Of The Forest,” the title track and opening song off Anastasio’s 2019 LP. Anastasio showed off his whistling skills on “The Endless Dream,” the evening’s initial debut, which emerged out of “GOTF.” Trey reeled off a list of seemingly random items, television shows and experiences as “The Endless Dream’s” lyrics. The ensuing jam was dark and funky propelled by Douglas and Fishman’s deep groove. Trey utilized a heavily distorted and biting tone as he built up his blistering solo before returning for a chorus to close “The Endless Dream” accompanied by Fish’s backing vocals.

Saturday’s first set rolled on with “mercy,” the title track from Trey’s first solo acoustic album, which came out last year. From there, the trio premiered “On Pillow Jets,” a song that has a composed section which would fit in nicely on Ghosts Of The Forest. The mellow start to the tune prefaced another Anastasio shredfest. Dezron and Trey connected on a dirty riff that laid the groundwork for a second section of the jam. The guitarist then uncorked licks a la Hendrix’s “Machine Gun” to start a build towards a climax. Anastasio, Douglas and Fishman capped the frame with an 18-minute “46 Days,” the only song in the set played by Phish first. The “46 Days” was an improvisational highlight as Trey gave a tone clinic and explored multiple jam spaces with the rhythm section.

A pair of debuts encompassed “Ruby Waves” to get Saturday’s second set underway. Douglas used a synth tone on the “Outside The Lines” opener, a song based on a swampy riff. Trey sang about “drifting way outside the lines” and repeated the title with Douglas backing him. Dezron continued to play the main riff as the “Outside The Lines” jam began. Anastasio offered plenty of fretboard fireworks before returning to the chorus to conclude the song. The “Ruby Waves” improv started as a bliss-laden affair before the trio went back to the evil minor-key jamming so prominent in the show and run.

“Ruby Waves” faded into “Machine,” the fourth and final premiere of the evening. “Machine” was the only new song played on Saturday that didn’t feature an expansive jam. The tune started in lilting fashion and then moved into a proggy section over which Anastasio wailed. From there the trio took on Ghosts Of The Forest’s “About To Run” before throwing back to the late-’90s by working an unfinished “The Moma Dance” into “Twist.” The 25-minute pairing filled with more Hendrix/Cream jamming closed the set. For the encore, the Trey Anastasio Trio treated fans to an adventurous version of Lonely Trip standout “A Wave Of Hope.”
