Pork Tornado To Headline Equifunk Sunday Series

Written by on 05.13.2013 | Equifunk, Festivals, News, Pork Tornado

Equifunk was originally supposed to finish up after breakfast on Sunday morning, August 18. Today, Equifunk organizers have announced that instead they will offer a full day of music on the 18th. Jon Fishman and Pork Tornado have been tapped as headliners for Equifunk’s Sunday Series.

For those who already purchased Equifunk tickets, you’ll get the extra day of music for free. Note that the “all-inclusive” part of the fest does still end at breakfast on Sunday. Organizers do say they will have food and drink available for purchase throughout Sunday. The rest of the Sunday schedule will be announced soon.

Soulive and the Shady Horns with Maceo Parker, The New Mastersounds, JJ Grey with Mofro, Anders Osborne and Keller Williams with More Than A Little are among the acts set to play Equifunk 13′, which takes place at Camps Equinunk and Blue Ridge in Pennsylvania’s Poconos on Aug. 16 – 18.

The Return of Pork Tornado: Jon Fishman @ Higher Ground

Written by on 01.18.2013 | Jon Fishman, Pork Tornado

While I was on Jam Cruise, I missed the news that Pork Tornado will return for their first gig in over a decade on February 6th at Higher Ground’s Showcase Lounge in South Burlington, Vermont.

Pork Tornado was formed by Phish drummer Jon Fishman and guitarist Dan Archer and also features Joe Moore on sax and vocals, Phil Abair on keys and vocals and Aaron Hersey on bass and vocals. Fish and Archer put the cover band together in 1997 and slowly added funky originals such as Kiss My Black Ass into their repertoire as they started to tour. The band last toured in 2002.

No word on whether Pork Tornado will play any additional shows. Tickets are available for $15 a piece through Higher Ground’s FrontGate Ticketing site.
