Vida Blue is a trio fronted by Page McConnell of Phish which includes Oteil Burbridge of The Allman Brothers Band and Russell Batiste of The Meters. Vida Blue got its name from the 1970's Major League Baseball pitcher Vida Blue. The band originated in 2001 when McConnell attended shows by both the Allmans and The Meters, and approached both Burbridge and Batiste about the Vida Blue project, which they were interested in.
