Executive Producer Ellis Godard selected artists to be as diverse as possible in style, genre, and instrumentation, and arranged the tracks to resemble a Phish concert, with the more exploratory material in the second "set" (disc two). Also, in a twist on typical tribute albums, each artist represents an influence on Phish[2] (such as a style they've mimicked, or an artist they've covered), whereas most tributes feature artists influenced by the band they are covering.

In addition to the album, a series of bonus tracks was released exclusively online.
