On June 28, Phil and Friends will also linkup with G.R.A.B., a new band featuring Trey Anastasio, Mike Gordon, Marco Benevento and Joe Russo, for a series of co-headlining east coast dates.

Each night, the Benevento/Russo Duo will also offer a solo set before performing with Anastasio and Gordon.
After completing its run with G.R.A.B., Phil and Friends will perform solo dates in Columbus, OH (7/14), Indianapolis, IN (7/15), Chicago (7/16), Louisville, KY (7/18) and Kansas City, MO (7/19), closing out its summer tour at 10,000 Lakes (7/21).
