The Trip was fantastic! Just had our rock n’ roll themed Christmas party and the band and music was awesome! Positive comments from guests and a lot of dancing by all! Would hire them again without hesitation!

We loved The Trip and would love to have them back! They put their all into the performance and the community had a wonderful time. I was impressed by their coverage of groups like Alice and Chains and Guns and Roses. Their vocals were on point! Excellent stage presence! They really connect with the audience and a wide demographic. I would highly recommend The Trip for any type of function!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 19, 2024•From Covina, CA
The band is 5 stars across the board! They played for my husband's 50th surprise birthday party and blew us all away! I was looking for a band who could play multiple generations of rock (they even accommodated specific songs!) they had everyone dancing all night. These guys did not disappoint - what talent! The only bummer was that I didn't book them for longer, we could have partied all night with these guys!! All 100 guests raved about how incredible the band was - they MADE the party! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, considerate, and talented band. I hope we get the pleasure to hear them again soon. Cheers!

The Trip band was exceptional! Far exceeded our expectations. All the guests loved their music and singing, raved to us! I appreciated how quick the band got back to me when I had questions. This band doesn’t just play other bands music they bring each song alive!! We would highly recommend them!

Huge thanks to The Trip for putting on the best concert we've ever seen. Seriously, you will not believe how amazing these musicians are. They had the crowd fired up for hours with great song after great song, performed like they sound on the album, only better. We opted to add legendary guitarist Ron Thal to the band, and if you can swing it, we highly recommend you do the same. The sound was absolutely exquisite. This is a band filled with musical virtuosos; every single member brought magic and energy to the performance. We'll book them again the very first chance we get.

The Trip was awesome! From our first contact with them to saying goodbye on the night of our wedding, they were nothing short of amazing, professional, and fun! Our guests loved them — high energy, totally into all of it, easy to work with. Would readily recommend them to anyone looking for a great band. Cannot wait to hear and see them again!!

Thank you so much for having us play your special day Judy, and also the wonderful review! You and Rob were awesome to work with and we wish the best for you both. Hopefully, we can play another event for you soon!

The Trip was absolutely amazing! All our guests thought it fit the fundraising event perfectly, and many came up to say it was the best "Sails 'n Ales" they have been to in all the years we had been doing it (even though it was raining!). We plan to ask for The Trip to participate again- it just was utterly perfect.

We hired The Trip for our community concert in the park. People in the community kept coming up and complimenting on their music choice and how incredible they sound. The Trip was fantastic! They were timely, professional and rocked it!

This is the third time I’ve used The Trip since 2008- for a big corporate party on the USSMidway and smaller event at my home- to this most recent 50th HS Class Reunion with 150 in attendance. Hands down the number of compliments in this band from dancers and non dancers alike was about how great they were. How people felt like they were listening to the original Journey or other band. They were fabulous all the way around - from booking process to execution. And I’d def use them again - Joy Campanaro.

If we could afford it, we would have The Trip perform every week for us !! Absolutely amazing experience and people are still talking about the event days later. The talent is off the charts and the range of music was ridiculous! Made my birthday boy feel very special. And nice guys to boot.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 3, 2022•From Poway, CA
Best band that I have ever hired. Every song they played sounded exactly like the orginal! Instrumentals and vocals both spot on and amazing. I couldn't believe it. Sound mixing and volume were perfect too. Must have had half the party guests come up to me saying how blown away they were by the band. On top of that, they were all super nice guys, very professional, and great with the guests. 5 stars for sure.

They.Are.INCREDIBLE!!!!!! If I could give them 10 stars I would. They were exactly what we were looking for and absolutely exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for a VERY good cover band and to have an epic party, please hire these guys. Don't hesitate. From the moment they started playing until the very last song, the dance floor was absolutely packed. Our guests are still talking about how good they were 5 months later. They cover every classic song better than the actual song. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, this was my dream band!!!

The TRIP was professional from the first point of contact. I never worried that they would come. They were particularly accommodating in that we wanted them to perform on our bandstand, which was a little tight with the drum set, but worked out beautifully. Everyone had a fantastic time, including the neighbors listening nearby. I would rehire them in an instant for my next large party.

The Trip was AMAZING! They totally rocked our 1960’s corporate anniversary party at the House of Blues in Anaheim. Our staff and guests could not stop raving and have asked us to use them next year. They are such talented musicians...and so friendly to work with! They dressed up for the theme and are for sure a class act! We will definitely be using them in the future! Just need to plan another party!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 5, 2019•From Newport Beach, CA
Mike the drummer responded quickly, was professional, he made booking a breeze. He called to confirm details a couple days in advance, he arrived early as did the rest of the band to set up and sound track. They were ready to go ahead of schedule. They offered to help if we needed anything and all of this was fantastic, just how you want it to go. However, their talent and song list are stellar, every song performed perfectly, they had my girlfriends literally RUNNING to the dance floor each time a new song came on! EVERYONE who attended, loved THE TRIP. They are incredible! My highest recommendation! If you hire them, be sure to invite me to the party!

We have had so many people tell us how amazing this band was! The Trip was a dream come true. I never thought we would find someone as awesome as they were. Not only was their performance outstanding, but the members were in communication with us throughout this whole process. They were very easy to talk to. Thank you guys for everything and making our wedding an incredible night!

Unbelievable!!!! Extremely talented. I looked them up on YouTube and it doesn’t really show their true talent. I had a backyard birthday party for my husband and all of my different age group guests couldn’t stop mentioning how incredibly awesome the band was.
They play rock n roll and much more. They have the versatility of playing other music genres. They were are also very accommodating to my guests with their song requests. Mike was very helpful and easy to communicate for the pre-arrangements of my event. I usually have different themed parties and I know they would be the band that i would hire again and again.

The Trip was awesome! Super talented musicians who created a really fun atmosphere. Everyone left sweating from a massive fun dance party with huge smiles on their faces. All of our friends says it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. A lot of that credit goes to The Trip and the way the music made it a great party!
