Trippy Wicked & the Cosmic Children of the Knight sit under the ever expanding umbrella of stoner doom and surrounding genres. Starting with a core of distilled Sabbath riffs the band comfortably add in rock, blues and acoustic guitar as the songs require. Lyrical themes can reach odes to those that have passed in one direction and good old fashioned drinking sing-alongs in the other.

As the band’s full title suggests Trippy Wicked like to enjoy themselves. Live gigs are always a good time for the band and the fans. Notable good times include opening up the first Desertfest in London and a handful of tours with the USA’s Stone Axe and Germany’s Wight.

The early years of Trippy Wicked & the Cosmic Children of the Knight are a mix of lineup changes, demos, gigs to empty rooms and stylistic development. Throughout that time the constants of founding members Pete Holland (guitar, vocals) and Chris West (drums), a DIY ethic and a gut feeling they were onto something worth pursuing remained true. Early 2019 saw the reformation of the ‘not quite original but longest serving lineup’ of Holland, West with later addition Dicky King (bass). West having previously quit the band in 2013 before his return.

Along with the announcement of the lineup change Trippy Wicked also noted they are writing their 3rd full length album and will return to playing live after a 2 year break.
