Bananafish was a Boston based Rock & Roll Jam band in the 1990’s.[1] Their innovative and spontaneous sound was reminiscent of The Grateful Dead. Fronted by vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Fordham Murdy (known now as Reverend Freakchild). The band also consisted of Dan Simone on keyboards, and Ben Chen and then Ry Cavanaugh on bass. The band had a series of drummers starting with Dan Simone when the band was known as The Davenport, before Simone moved full time to keys. Joe Bulkin was then the drummer for a short time followed by Dave Barrett and then finally Marc Gratama. The band played extensively in the northeast.

Their single "Red Car Comin' " appears on Son of Godzippah, a 1993 compilation of local Boston artists[2]. A 25th anniversary album is now available (2022 remastered release) from recordings that were only previously available at their live shows[3].
