RECAP
On Saturday night, Trey Anastasio resumed the live tenure of the Beacon Jams. The revival of his 2020 concert concept, which benefits the Divided Sky Foundation, brought the Phish frontman back to New York City’s Beacon Theatre for two sets that slinked between solo acoustic performances, electric standouts, and string-backed arrangements featuring the Rescue Squad Strings (Rachel Golub, Katie Kresek, Maxim Moston, and Anja Wood). At other times, the maestro welcomed aid from pianist Jeff Tanski and the horn section, invigorating select compositions with the proper oomph to keep people talking.

“It’s been a weird adventure,” says Paul Janeway, reflecting on his last few years with his ever shifting Alabama outfit, St. Paul & The Broken Bones. In the past, that quote could have been a nod to the band’s music—with their experimental double-header, The Alien Coast (2022) and Angels in Science Fiction (2023), the horn heavy octet expanded from comfort-food Southern soul into a dreamier and more psychedelic space, likely tapping into a new vein of fans while alienating some diehards devoted to early belters like “Call Me.” This time around, the opposite sentiment is true. The band’s self-titled sixth LP is, in the singer’s words, a “reset”—an intentional refocus on classic grooves and songwriting chops. In many ways, it feels like a backyard barbecue with family you haven’t seen in ages. Everyone is slightly older, hopefully wiser and warmer, somehow still home. But the path toward that result was arduous, confusing and, indeed, very weird.
