Jam band supergroup LaMP performed their late night Phish afterparty at The Cutting Room on Wednesday, August 2nd. LaMP consists of Scott Metzger joined by Russ Lawton & Ray Paczkowski of Trey Anastasio Band.
The room was packed and attendees were ready to boogie following Phish. The band played a very tight, rocking, funky set. The whole show was rather funky and Scott’s guitar playing as the only axe man in the band reminded me more of Trey Anastasio’s playing more than Scott’s guitar parts in Joe Russo’s Almost Dead. There were incredible peaks and moments of dissonance, but mostly very tight and danceable funkiness.
Truly a supergroup with three incredible musicians. With these three in the room, you’re bound to dance!
