Appel de conférences pour le « Phish Studies Conference 2024 », Corvallis, Oregon, 17-19 mai 2024.

« Over the past forty years, Phish has built a fervent fan base and an impressive live performance history, often working outside traditional avenues of the mainstream recording industry. They staged the world’s largest New Year’s Eve concert in December 1999 with a marathon seven-hour set, redefined the modern American music festival, and performed a record-setting thirteen night run at New York’s Madison Square Garden without repeating a single song during the summer of 2017. Despite these and other achievements, Phish has only recently begun to receive the scholarly attention that many other artists in popular music have enjoyed.

Over three days in 2019, nearly 200 scholars and fans participated in the first Phish Studies Conference. Highlights included a listening session led by musicologists, formal presentations by over fifty scholars, a pop-up museum of Phish artifacts, a panel of Mockingbird Foundation Board members, a film preview, and a jam band show. Our planning for 2024 includes a change of venue that will allow participation by more scholars and fans. »
