Charlie's Salty Swimmers
Charlie’s Salty Swimmers may sound like an inside joke — and honestly, that’s part of the fun.
This loose, shape-shifting side project features members of the Dude of Life Band and is led by Steve Pollak, better known throughout the jam world as The Dude of Life — a songwriter, performer, longtime Trey Anastasio collaborator, and genuine piece of Phish history.
Pollak’s connection to Phish goes all the way back to the beginning. He and Anastasio played together as teenagers in Space Antelope before Phish existed, and Pollak went on to co-write lyrics and melodies for some of the band’s most beloved songs, including “Fluffhead,” “Run Like an Antelope,” “Suzy Greenberg,” “Sanity,” “Slave to the Traffic Light,” and “Dinner and a Movie.” MINT Talent Group
His own musical catalog has plenty of history behind it, too. The Dude of Life’s debut album, Crimes of the Mind, was recorded with Phish as his backing band and released by Elektra Records in 1994 — with Trey Anastasio, Page McConnell, Mike Gordon, and Jon Fishman all appearing on the record. Phish
Over the years, The Dude of Life has remained one of the more wonderfully eccentric figures orbiting the Phish universe: part songwriter, part frontman, part cult character, and always willing to take the music somewhere a little unexpected.
Which brings us to Charlie’s Salty Swimmers.
Think of the Swimmers as the Dude of Life Band’s loose, incognito side hustle — a chance for longtime collaborators to step outside the usual frame, lean into the groove, and let the set go wherever the night wants to take it.
The music is rooted in the same psychedelic, quirky, improvisational spirit associated with The Dude of Life, but with even more room for spontaneity. Expect songs to stretch, covers to take strange turns, grooves to settle in, and the musicians to follow whatever idea catches fire in the moment.
There’s plenty of Phish-adjacent DNA in the room, but this isn’t a tribute show. It’s something much looser and more personal: a group of musicians with deep chemistry having fun, taking chances, and letting the audience in on the joke.
Expect deep grooves, left-of-center takes, familiar musical fingerprints, plenty of improvisation, and absolutely no guarantee of where the next song might end up when Charlie’s Salty Swimmers hit the 12N stage. 🐊🎸🍺🎶

Stripped Down & Stretched Out: The Spignesi & Jeffrey Duo
Spignesi & Jeffrey Duo
Built on honest songs, patient grooves, and improvisation that only shows up when the moment calls for it, John Spignesi and Joe Jeffery bring a stripped-down version of the John Spignesi Band sound to the 12N stage.
Spignesi’s songwriting stays at the center — direct, thoughtful, and unfiltered — while Jeffery’s bass work gives the music room to breathe, settle in, and stretch naturally. Rather than forcing the jam, the duo lets songs develop at their own pace, leaning into feel, conversation, and the kind of musical chemistry that comes from years spent playing together.
As members of the New England-based John Spignesi Band, formed in 2015, the pair have built their sound the old-fashioned way: show by show, night by night, letting consistency and connection do the heavy lifting. That same spirit carries into the duo format, where every lyric, groove, and spontaneous turn has a little more space around it. John Spignesi Band
Expect a relaxed but deeply engaging set rooted in songwriting, improvisation, and genuine musical interplay — the kind of performance that can feel intimate one minute and unexpectedly expansive the next.
Settle in, grab a fresh 12N pour, and let Spignesi & Jeffery take the long way around. 🎸🍺🎶

Goose: Live Stream from Red Rocks
Goose heads back to Red Rocks Amphitheatre for a live-streamed night of expansive jams, soaring melodies, and the kind of musical left turns that make every show its own animal — and we’re bringing the whole thing straight to the 12N big screen.
Known for blending indie-rock songwriting with deep improvisation, synth-driven textures, funk, and long-form grooves, Goose has become one of the most exciting live bands on the jam circuit. Add the natural acoustics and unmistakable backdrop of Red Rocks, and this one has all the ingredients for a serious couch-tour destination.
Join us Thursday, August 27 at Twelvenote Brew Co. for the live stream from Morrison, Colorado. Grab a fresh pour, claim your spot, and settle in as the songs stretch, the lights come up, and Red Rocks gets a little closer to Black Rock.

The band features Dave Gross on mandolin—who’s performed alongside artists like Bob Weir and Sammy Hagar, and played major festivals with Gangstagrass—Tom Wise on upright bass, channeling deep Midwest roots and soulful songwriting, and Nick Conte on guitar and vocals, who has shared stages with Tony Trischka, Jeff Austin, and members of the Grateful Dead family.
