The Quiet Table

Three Fish is a musical collaboration between Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam, Robbi Robb of Tribe After Tribe, and Richard Stuverud of the Fastbacks. The album's recording sessions took place from February 1997 to September 1997. The band worked with producer Brett Eliason, who had previously worked with Ament as Pearl Jam's sound engineer. The album was mixed by Pat Aki and Brett Eliason. The album's songs continued the theme of the band's debut of combining rock music with mystical-style Eastern music. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of All Music Guide said that "while it can seem a little turgid at times, it's an ambitious project that often pays off in intriguing songs and evocative sonic textures."^[1] The band toured throughout 1999 in support of The Quiet Table.
