The Dude of Life Band is a five-person, genre-bending group led by the Dude of Life (aka Steve Pollak). For several decades, The Dude’s been writing songs in an ongoing collaboration with Phish and first teamed up with Trey Anastasio while the two were in high school. The Dude wrote lyrics for a number of Phish’s most beloved songs, including Fluffhead, Run Like an Antelope and Suzy Greenberg and has also been a mythical sideshow with the band, making random appearances sometimes highlighted by the throwing of uniquely-inscripted rubber chickens into the crowd. The Dude’s debut album, Crimes of the Mind, was recorded with Phish for Elektra Records and released in 1994.

In recent years, The Dude’s developed a more refined sound. A recent burst of creativity has yielded an album’s worth of new material which was recently recorded by acclaimed producer Bryce Goggin. The Dude of Life Band performs these vibrant new songs alongside his Phish classics, plus a mix of electrifying covers. The band is Steve Pollak on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Fred Scholl on lead guitar, Charlie de Saint Phalle on bass, Doug Schneider on drums, and Parker Reilly on keyboard and organ.

Ronald Reggae

February 1781, James Watt patents the steam engine. July 1964, Congress passes the Civil Rights Act. March 1987, Hulk Hogan body slams Andre the Giant. These moments in human history pale in comparison to a series of events which unfolded in late 2015 and led to the formation of a musical group that Rolling Stone has called "we do not accept submissions". Employing a musical style heavily influenced by the plot of the film Wild Hogs, Ronald Reggae is the stylish four-piece jam vehicle your buddy Steve will not shut up about. Ryan Datino, Jack Ahearn, Scott Pires, and Anthony Trabucco aren't just your favorite local, working-class rock and roll outfit -- they're your friends. You trust them. You'd do anything for them - wear your shirt inside out, feed your cat dirt, call your mom Roger. Yeah, that's what we thought.
