Episode notes

What happens when a Trey Anastasio Band rhythm section that plays together like one organism invites a Grateful Dead-inspired guitar ace to join them on stage at the same legendary Burlington club where Phish played their very first shows? You get LaMP — the Vermont supergroup that was born on a single magical night at Nectar's in December 2018 and has been quietly stunning jam fans ever since.

In this episode, Schecky breaks down how Russ Lawton, Ray Paczkowski, and Scott Metzger became three of the most accomplished musicians in the jam world before they ever shared a stage together — including Ray's fifteen years of milking cows before gigs, We dig into why Ramblin' is the perfect entry point for new listeners, and go deep on the two sold-out homecoming nights at Nectar's in November 2023 that became their landmark live album.

Subscribe, drop a comment telling us where you first heard LaMP or the show you're planning to catch, and share this episode with any jam fan who thinks they already know all the great bands — because I promise, they don't know this one yet.
