Artist history

Hello and welcome to the world of LIFE TRIP. Here is an update from 2001. We played over 100 shows to a wide range of people. Released two CD's "Cosmic Boogie"-(Live) and "Chronicles" (a compilation of studio recordings from 1993 through 1999). Increased visibility on the internet: www.mp3.com/lifetrip; www.mp3.com/Soundport_Records; and a web hosting by Lonely Goat.com. In 2002 two more CDs are scheduled for release, another live CD with guest appearances from members of NONE THE WISER and The SKELLINGTONS called "World of Evil" and a follow up to "Chronicles" "Chronicles II." LIFE TRIP was started in Greensboro, NC by Chip Symonds (vocals, keyboard, sax, flute, guitar, bass)[1993]. Originally a solo project, LIFE TRIP released two cassettes(full length) and an EP(7"vinyl). LIFE TRIP EP-1993, Astrolabe-1994, Passage-1995. In 1996 the "Adobe Ride" cassette was released with the help of Rob Brame on bass and guitar.

Rob co-wrote the song "Zero Gravity" along with Chip. For the 1st CD "Mental Travelers" Chip wrote some of the material with Rob as well as percussionist Mark Wagoner [1997]. In preparation for the next CD "Tranquillity" (2000) LIFE TRIP did some shows with original Grateful Dead keyboard player Tom Constanten, influencing the highly jam based sound now developing in the group. Over 100 shows followed, a radio appearance on the Carolina show-Guilford College, and web cast from the Brewery Raleigh,NC. on the Digital Club Network (www.digitalclubnetwork.com). The CD "Cosmic Boogie" (2001) has a "psychedelic jazz-rock-folk" feel recorded live with Raphael Schiavone on drums, Malcom Fields on bass and background vocals, and Chip Symonds on guitar, sax, flute, and vocals.
