In addition to its use as Phish's primary rehearsal and recording space, The Barn also serves as the home to the Seven Below Arts Initiative, a non-profit organization formed to advance arts education in Vermont. Following Anastasio's sold-out benefit shows at Webster Hall in New York City, The Barn was modified from a commercial recording facility into an artistic studio, providing housing and studio space to artists participating in the Seven Below residency program. Seven Below has been working with Burlington City Arts to facilitate arts education activities to under-served populations since 2007.[1][2]
Phish has used the Barn to record all of their studio albums since Farmhouse with the exception of Joy (2009). The band recorded the entirety of their 2020 release Sigma Oasis at the studio.[3]
