Releasing new music this Thursday (9/12)!!
ROSCOE TRIPP is an indie rock band, not a person. But, if it was a person, they would be in this indie rock band. Reviews of ROSCOE TRIPP's first two EP's compared the band to Bright Eyes, Pavement, Julian Casablancas, M. Ward, and Modest Mouse.
ROSCOE TRIPP began in 2021 as an outlet for DC-based producer Greg Fine to record songs influenced by the early 00's indie scene. The following year, ROSCOE TRIPP was fully formed as a band and began playing live shows. Fine performs lead vocals and is joined by Tony Vitez on lead guitar, Masterjee Bumbu on rhythm guitar, Cass Foley on bass, and Ash Tressel on drums.
ROSCOE TRIPP's debut EP, "It Always Starts with Something," was released in January 2023, and comprised of songs written, recorded, and performed by Fine. In August 2023, ROSCOE TRIPP released their 2nd EP, "A Cage Made of Tin," which the band recorded together. The title track charted at multiple college radio stations, and was produced by Kenny Carkeet, most notably known for AWOLNATION’s hit song “Sail."
In early 2024, ROSCOE TRIPP released a cover of Faraquet’s “Cut Self Not” on the compilation vinyl “Yesterday & Today: DC Does Dischord.” The album included new tracks from The Dismemberment Plan, and was featured by Brooklyn Vegan. ROSCOE TRIPP's first full length album is anticipated in early 2025.
