Built on hook-forward songwriting shared by all four members, Jared Sage Cowen (guitar/vocals), Max Perrotti (bass/vocals), Daniel Cohen (keys/vocals), and Henry Thomas (drums/vocals), the band has quickly earned national attention. Known for adventurous live performances that blur the line between tightly crafted compositions and spontaneous exploration, Big Shrimp has a fiercely loyal fanbase known as the Prawn Stars. With all four members contributing songs, vocals, and improvisational ideas, no two performances are alike. The chemistry that has become one of the band's defining characteristics and helped establish them as one of the fastest-rising independent acts in the modern jam scene. “...yielding some of the funkiest, most cathartic and most primal energy of the set. With catchy melodies, impressive solos, complex arrangements, and shifting tempos and moods, the band kept you on your toes and bobbing your head the entire show.” — NYSMusic That momentum exploded in 2026 with the band's 30+ date It's As Shrimple As That Tour, headlining rooms including the Aggie Theatre, Cervantes' Other Side, Buffalo Iron Works, Garcia's Chicago, Richmond Music Hall, Charleston Pour House, and dozens of additional markets nationwide. The tour culminated in the release of The Prawno Tapes, Vol. 4, a live album capturing the strongest improvisational moments from the run and featuring special guest Ryan Dempsey of Twiddle, who joined the band for several performances throughout the tour. "There's something about seeing a pack of feral 20-something-year-olds on a mission that calms any doubt about the future of music." — Josh Landes, WAMC Building on that momentum, Big Shrimp spent Summer 2026 following Phish throughout the Northeast with its "We've Got It Shrimple" after-party series. The run packed venues across the East Coast, sold out three performances, and introduced hundreds of new fans to the band's explosive late-night shows. On the studio front, Big Shrimp released its second studio single, "Alcaworkholic," in March 2026 as the latest preview of the band's forthcoming debut full-length album set for release in Fall 2026. The band's momentum continues this August with the launch of Camp Scampi, Big Shrimp's inaugural music, food, and arts festival in Addison, New York. Headlined by Big Shrimp and Spafford and featuring more than 30 artists across multiple stages, the independently produced festival reflects the community the band has built through relentless touring and an ever-growing national audience. Looking ahead, Big Shrimp has already announced a 30+ date Fall 2026 Tour, expanding into new markets including St. Louis, Milwaukee, Cleveland, and Charlotte while returning to fan-favorite cities across the Northeast and Midwest. The run also marks the band's third Colorado tour of 2026, reinforcing one of its fastest-growing regional fanbases as momentum continues to build toward the release of its debut studio album. With multiple live releases, sold-out after-parties, national touring, an independently produced destination festival, and a debut album on the horizon, Big Shrimp continues to establish itself as one of the most exciting new voices in progressive improvisational rock.
