Description:
This young quartet might be described as a string band with pop music sensibilities, or perhaps a cutting edge vocal quartet with acoustic instruments. The Boston Globe called the band &.a genre unto itself. Tripping Lily went to number one for several weeks on Bostons Folk Station WUMB. With Demetrius Becrelis (guitar/vocals/ukulele), brother Alex Becrelis (mandolin/vocals), Monica Rizzio (fiddle/vocals/ukulele), and Laird Boles (stringed bass), Tripping Lily blends a unique sound of traditional and contemporary genres. A group of musicians who draw their inspiration from within, Tripping Lily has deeply explored songwriting with their personal and passionate work. Touted as fresh, energetic, and alive, Tripping Lilys pop-rock groundwork is cross-fertilized with folk music and cutting edge vocal harmonies. The bands unique ability to absorb traditional music while speaking to the here and now is proof of their versatility as contemporary musicians.
