Singing with the easy-going alternative band Toad The Wet Sprocket, Glen Phillips wrote his share of moderate ’90s hits, including “All I Want” and “Walk on the Ocean,” but since that band’s break-up—and during its occasional reunions—he’s continued down a more rootsy, folkier path, collaborating with modern bluegrass sensations Nickel Creek and recording on his own for Lost Highway Records. Tonight, Phillips returns to Milwaukee for an 8 p.m. show at Shank Hall with opener Jonathan Kingham.
