Phish

On October 21, 2018, when Phish performed "Simple" at the Hampton Coliseum, the band was actively touring as part of their post-hiatus career, which began in 2009 after a split that lasted until 2008. The live show followed their earlier album "Big Boat," released in 2016, marking a period of renewed creativity and stability for the group. The 2018 performance showcased their signature improvisational style and deep connection with the audience, elements that have characterized their live shows throughout their career. Interestingly, the Hampton Coliseum holds significant nostalgic value for Phish, as it is one of the venues that helped establish their reputation during the 1990s. The recording from this specific show further exemplifies their ability to blend structured compositions with spontaneous jams, highlighting the evolution of their sound over the years.
