Recommendations for jam band/funk anthemic songs?
I saw a show last night that I feel opened up a whole new genre of music for me. I don't really have the vocabulary to describe it. There were a lot of people with dreadlocks and light up hoola hoops. The music was amazing and I'm looking for more happy anthemic sort of jam band music I guess. Preferably newer. My favorite songs from last night had a touch of nostalgia to them, really pretty sort of sad melodies that were still really uplifting.

A couple good upbeat Phish anthems:
- Simple
- Run Like an Antelope
- Weekapaug Groove
If you like those PM me and I'll hook you up! Not sure what show you saw last night but Phish summer tour starts in July, and I'd highly highly recommend catching them if they come anywhere near you.

Not new, but do not neglect "Basically Frightened"

'jam band' and 'anthem' seem mutually exclusive to me. i bet lots more answers would be available with a clearer definition of what you think an 'anthem' is.

The Dead have a bunch of 'anthemic' songs, like GDTRFB or Truckin, or One More Saturday Night.

But what you probably really want is Michael Franti
