The album 'Evolve' was released on July 12, 2024, as Phish's sixteenth studio album. It is the band's first studio album since 'Sigma Oasis' (2020) and marks a new phase in their recording output, featuring songs that had been performed live on previous tours.
The recordings took place primarily at The Barn, the band's home studio in Vermont, during 2023 and early 2024. The album was self-produced by the band, continuing their tradition of self-production, and features mixing by Vance Powell, known for his work with artists such as Jack White.
The disc includes ten original songs, many of which debuted in concerts between 2021 and 2023. 'Evolve' was received positively by critics and fans, highlighting its fresh sound and the band's compositional maturity, although some tracks were already familiar to followers who attend their live shows.
