Pork Tornado is a band founded in 1997 by former Phish drummer Jon Fishman, Dan Archer (guitar, vocals), Joe Moore (saxophone, vocals), Aaron Hersey (bass, vocals), and Phil Abair (keyboards, vocals).

The band played a number of country-western and rock originals as well as a number of standard covers. The group was simply an occasional side project for Fishman until Phish's hiatus in 2000. By 2002, Pork Tornado was Fishman's main priority. The band released an album in October of that year and embarked on their largest tour of the United States shortly thereafter. However, they have been inactive since then.
