Phish’s Jonathan Fishman Reunites

Jonathan Fishman, founding drummer of the band Phish, reunites with his childhood drum instructor at Forge Recording.

In 1978 a teenage drummer takes 3 drum lessons in Syracuse, New York, and becomes one of the most successful touring musicians of all time. Credit Tom Emmi of Studio Jams for another stroke of genius–reuniting the instructor, Dave Hanlon, with the student, Jonathan Fishman, and filming the session at Forge Recording. Read the article from Syracuse.com. See the recording session on Studio Jams in the near future.

Jonthan Fishman and Dave Hanlon were joined by Gil Parris on guitar, Matt King on keys and Kip Sophos on bass. Ron DiSilvestro engineered the session for Forge Recording.
