Grammy Award-winning artist Oteil Burbridge will be performing with the Vermont band LaMP which comprises of Russ Lawton, Scott Metzger, and Ray Paczkowski for the first time on the Wish Benefit Tour 2026, which is a four-day tour supporting Make-A-Wish chapters in the Northeast region.
Organized by the Fiddlehead Brewing Company, the tour is set to take place in Saratoga Springs, Burlington, Brooklyn, and Somerville from October 6-9.
Burbridge is recognized for his musical contributions as a founding member of Dead & Company, the bassist of Allman Brothers Band, and a member of Aquarium Rescue Unit. Burbridge will be joining LaMP, a groove-oriented trio consisting of artists who have been performing with Trey Anastasio Band and Joe Russo’s Almost Dead.
Since its formation in 2019, LaMP has made various studio and live records and has played sold out concerts all across the United States. The coming tour will be the first time that Burbridge and this group play together on the same platform, creating an event of four great musicians with a worthy cause.
The tour is also meaningful to Amy Cohen, co-owner of Fiddlehead Brewing Company, because her son Noah was granted a wish from Make-A-Wish over ten years ago. “We saw firsthand what it meant for him and for our whole family.” says Cohen. Also “To help grant that same joy for other children now, through the live music we love, is a full-circle moment we will never forget.”
Pre-sale registration opens Wednesday, July 29 at 10 a.m. Fans who register will receive ticket access from July 29 through July 31 at 9:59 a.m., before tickets become available to the public on Friday, July 31 at 10 a.m.
