Hear me out. 

Trey Anastasio (most well known as guitarist and lead vocalist of Phish) is a very eclectic solo artist. He's produced a variety of content over the years and delivered a multitude of different genres to the forefronts of his albums. He's done neo-classical progressive rock, jazz rock, experimental rock, the whole shebang. His bands include Phish, Surrender to the Air, Phil Lesh & Friends,  and his very own Trey Anastasio Band (originally known as Eight Foot Fluorescent Tubes). Many of these different bands have eclectic, progressive juices (Phish is on this website of course), and this transpires into all of his work. I believe that all of these progressive tangents he's done, he has made a few significant progressive rock albums over the years under his solo name. 

Below is Anastasio's discography and links to the most progressive songs on the albums. If you wish to peruse the rest, the link to the full album / playlist of the album will be there. Any incomplete playlists there that are unfinished are created by me and consist of all of the available YouTube tracks from said album. The albums are only those released under "Trey Anastasio" and "Trey Anastasio Band".

4. In Rounds (5:47)
5. Flying Machines (4:07)

9. Liquid Time (6:18)
10. Paper Wheels (4:47)
11. Speak to Me (4:33)
12. Cartwheels (4:02)

So this is pretty much it. I just spent two hours making a overly-long post that'll just get rejected. Thought I'd bring some of it to PA's attention just for a bit of checking out. Cheers. 

EDIT: I forgot Anastasio's 2005 album Shine. It's not really that progressive of an album but the playlist is here.

No chance whatsoever of getting him in to Prog Related. Phish are there for sure, but there have been numerous debates over the years about whether or not they should be moved to a 'proper' sub (Eclectic is the one most often mentioned, though JR/F has also been mentioned in passing from time to time).

To get an artist accepted into Prog Related these days he or she firstly has to be a well-known name who has influenced prog on a wider scale in some tangible way or other, and you will then need to find a Special Collaborator to make a case for them on your behalf and present it before our admins, who might then take it to the private area off the forum where they discuss such matters, but Prog Related is a bit of a contentious issue around these parts just lately, and some high-ranking members of the site are in favour of scrapping the category altogether as far as new additions are concerned.

If Trey Anastasio is to be included on the site at all, it would have to be in one of our 'proper' subs, and suggesting him would almost certainly open up the Phish debate all over again. Ermm
