The Mockingbird Foundation and Trans World Entertainment have agreed to partner in a brick-and-mortar relationship which ensures availability of the release at more than 1100 stores in 44 states as well as through its website, where it will soon be a featured highlight. Phish Dry Goods and Homegrown Music Network are showing their support for the project by offering it online as well.

On July 17th, it will be available at Trans World brick-and-mortar stores including Camelot Music, Coconuts Music & Movies, FYE (For Your Entertainment), Incredible Universe, Planet Music, Record Town, Saturday Matinee, Spec's Music, Strawberries, Tape World, The Wall, and Waxie Maxie's.

Additionally, the Mockingbird Foundation is offering several bonus tracks for download from its website. The tracks include "Wolfman's Brother" by Phil Lesh and Friends and "Cars Trucks Buses" by the Duke Ellington Orchestra, and are available only to those who have completed a preorder at one of the three partner websites.

The Mockingbird Foundation was incorporated by Phish fans in 1997. Sharin' In The Groove is the second fund-raising effort of the all-volunteer organization. The group's first project was a 928-page book, The Phish Companion, which was published last fall by Backbeat Books (formerly Miller Freeman Books) and has sold nearly 34,000 copies. The Foundation's net proceeds from both projects are donated to charity, supporting music education for children.
