Amfibian is a musical project led by Phish lyricist Tom Marshall. Future members of the band appeared on Marshall's 2000 solo album Amfibian Tales, after which Marshall (on vocals and keyboards) officially formed Amfibian as a proper band. The group initially included guitarists Scott Metzger and Andrew Southern, bassist Matt Kohut (formerly of Ween), and drummers Pete Cottone and JP Wasicko. The group played a series of concerts in 2001, including a benefit for murdered Phish fan Kristin Laurite at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey. The show, hosted by Kevin Cassels of The Pharmer's Almanac, was to be released as a live album, but Marshall temporarily retired Amfibian at the end of the year.
