I've always loved the experience of working together with other people toward an artistic goal.

Things have gone beyond my wildest expectations and dreams, and I feel like I've been given so many blessings in my life, between my friendship with the guys in the band, our wonderful audience, being able to play this music, and then my family.

From Trey Anastasio

Musicians from the beginning of time have been there to express the mood and the musical feelings in the air for whatever's going on in that particular culture. It's the greatest joy as a musician to be able to translate that, be part of something and watch the scenery around you.

From Trey Anastasio

When you're a musician and you break new ground it resonates into the common consciousness.

From Trey Anastasio

I am a prince I have it all, and I hear your foot steps on the wall, I wait in silence for your call, and take a shot and watch you fall.

From Trey Anastasio

From Trey Anastasio

As long as your intention is pure, and you know what you're in it for, then you're alright. And I'm in it because I enjoy it. I take it seriously... real seriously. I mean I could sit and talk all day about the music.

From Trey Anastasio

Swing will never sound as good as it did in the '40s.

From Trey Anastasio

What I thought at the moment was the worst thing that could happen was absolutely the biggest gift I've received.
