Trip

About Me

Trip is a culmination of progressive funk music at its absolute best!The group earned the respect of the Bay Area since 1997 by flaunting their head bobbing beats, smooth grooves, and powerful lyrics. The ultimate foundation being layed down with the progressivly skillfull drumming by Justin Markovits, their incredible bottom end brought on by Mike Rognlie, and the intricate guitar melodies of Rich Corny that weave in and out of their hypnotizing grooves. The live show was always a show to remember, or forget, but thats entirely up to you.From the North to the South Bay you wouldn't find any better musicianship then these cool cats who have honed their skills and impressive chops to bring local audiences to another realm of musical bliss. Plain and simply, Trip is pure aural excitement. Trip recorded their last Trip in the summer of 2005 and has gone missing. If anyone has any information on the where abouts of this band...please notify your mother, immediately.
