About Me

"so how many tripping hazards does it take to screw a lightbulb?"
something involving cat ears, a pink hat, a soundguy who throws guitars and someone passing out in a bathtub naked and drunk.
Tripping Hazard was conceived in a bathtub at Bathurst and Harbord in down town Toronto on February 11th, 2005. Tripping Hazard was born in the upstairs of the Poor Alex Theater over drinks, conversations concerning Frank Zappa, Babes in Toyland and mysterious face wounds.
While continuing to hone their live chops among the ridiculously talented groups of the Toronto independent music scene, and occasionally road-tripping to rock other cities/towns/fields, Tripping Hazard continue to write and demo at the Ostrich studios. They have released the self produced EP, "It Can't be Pounding in Your Head if it's Throbbing in Your Groin", in December 2005,the cassette EP "Leprechaun Nipple Clamps" in March 2006.
Just this August, Tripping Hazard released "It Can't be Pounding in Your Head if it's Throbbing in Your Loins", an all new version of their first EP and are on the brink of finishing "Wron: Suicide Goat" , which was recorded at both Skylight and Ostrich studios.
