About this item
In 2001, Oysterhead officially formed to record and release an album entitled The Grand Pecking Order, which featured nine new tracks in addition to four songs originally debuted in New Orleans. The release of this album was supported by a brief tour of North America, during which nearly every show was performed to a sold-out audience. The Oysterhead tour of fall 2001 also saw the debut of the "Matterhorn," a bizarre-looking custom made guitar played by Trey Anastasio. The guitar featured full-size deer antlers that Trey manipulated to make sounds similar to that made by a theremin. The "Matterhorn" was as much a theatrical piece as it was a musical instrument, which was perfectly in step with the whimsical nature of the band.

Publicity for both the album and tour was gained from a performance of the song "Oz Is Ever Floating" on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. After the 2001 tour—which did see a few schedule changes due to the September 11th attacks—the trio went their separate ways.
