Published Mar 05, 2021
Vermont-bred jam band Phish are giving back to their community in the form of frontman Trey Anastasio s pledge to open a substance abuse treatment facility in the rural community of Ludlow, VT.
A recovering opiate addict himself, Anastasio will use donations from his Divided Sky Fund earned from 2020 s eight-week virtual Twitch-hosted residency at New York s Beacon Theatre to fund the new centre.
Thanks to fans donations of $1.2 million USD, the Ascension Recovery Services-directed centre is set to open later this year, with a focus on delivering quality care and compassionate treatment for those suffering from alcoholism and addiction.
