GRIP was formed in 2006 by veteran Rockers Chip Hullender and Jeff Brashears along with Chuck Ingram and Dave Sams.
After their first gig at Bogey's in Woodstock in March of 2006 the band began working hard playing Georgia, Tennessee and South Carolina and many great establishments from Sugar Hill to Cartersville.
In April 2006 the band won the Best Cover Band and the Peoples Choice award at Killer Creek Harley~Davidson, that led to playing Sundown at Thundercreek and Mountain Creek Harley-Davidson as well. In February o7 GRIP won the Best Rock Band award at the Whiskeystock Battle of the Bands, Best Band at Copperhead Lodge Battle of the Bands where they scored a summer concert series. All before their 1st year anniversary!
GRIP's second year really took off! Playing the first Full Throttle Bike Night each month at The Alley in Woodstock all year long they scored the monthly Full Throttle Bikini Contest. GRIP opened for the Atlanta Rhthym Section and Chris Young at Copperhead Lodge and were asked to play the Trail of Tears Kickoff party at Thundercreek Harley-Davidson (the largest organized bike ride in the world). In September GRIP got a sponsorship from Copperhead Lodge for their trip to Thunderbeach in Panama City to play Sharkys Beach Club and The Boardwalk Beach Resort
GRIP began performing their Original songs Believe and Trampstamp but due to different musical paths it was announced on Rocktober 31st, 2007, that Mitch Marcello formerly of Southern Crush would be taking over on Bass, replacing Jeff Brashears. GRIP began writing more Original material.
In 2008 GRIP began writing more Original material with Southern Boyz, Interior, focus, In My Cup and a reworked version of Trampstamp. In March they played The NASCAR Kobalt Tools 500 and Atlanta Motor Speedway and booked Thunder Beach Spring Bike Rally in Panama City, FL., the Rolling On For MDA Bike ride in Marietta Square, GA., Full Throttle Magazine's Rumble On The Noble in Anniston, AL and The Queens Reception Ball in Orange Beach, AL.!
