Arguably one of the best songs to come from the new crop of material, “Blaze On” has been a fan favorite since its debut in the summer of 2015. Since then, the song has become a fan favorite, with its breezy island jam leading the charge. Though obviously much shorter than a live rendition, the track enjoyable clocks in at an even 4:20.
Phish’s studio take on “Blaze On” is lighthearted, as Trey Anastasio even spotlights Page McConnell with a “Leo!” chant. The song is the second track to be released from the new Big Boat album, as “Breath and Burning” was recently released via NPR Music (stream it here). The new album is due out on October 7th, and you can listen to the new single below.
