Trip Rod

"Trip Rod is a staple of the local scene and are the band that got 105.7 the X to stand up and take notice of the local music scene and the talent that resides in central Illinois. They are always a top request during my 5 O'clock freak out when it comes to the local music and are always a crowd pleaser at our shows."

"...Trip Rod deliver on every level. The guitars keep you swaggering, the ryhthm keeps you jumping and the lyrics keep you intense. Rock n roll without the pretense, Trip Rod make Peoria proud."

"The local music scene in Central Illinois has really exploded within the past few years…from punk to barroom rock and pop to metal. Now with all these bands emerging things usually tend to get cluttered and that means it’s takes something extra to really stand out, something original so you don’t get lost in the crowd. Trip Rod has what it takes to stand out from pack. They aren’t one of these new up and coming bands who sounds just like everyone else. In fact they’re veterans of the music scene in Central Illinois who set the bar for those up and coming bands."

"By far one of the best things about Trip Rod is seeing them live. You know you’re not going to get some sh*tty cover band trying to sound like somebody else instead you get a sound that can only be described as Trip Rod. They’ve got insane energy and a love of what they do that comes across on stage like few other bands. I wish them the best of luck and they deserve all the success in the world."

"Trip Rod has been a 105.7 the x favorite for years now with their single "Super Ball" that thrust them into the regional spotlight and is still a constant on the phones. We continue to add Trip Rod tracks to our rotation and their rabid fans cant seem to get enough. Trip Rod has certainly proven themselves as a draw and 105.7 the x will continue to support and book them on our concerts for years to come. Aside from Trip Rod putting on an amazing live show that includes props and the crowd singing all the words to our Trip Rod favorites, the music solidifies Trip Rod on our playlist for years to come. Each song speaks to our senses and makes us quiver for more. Trip Rod some how manages to pull off a hook that sticks the listener from the very first spin and, leaves them begging for more. From "Superball" to the newest single "Heavy Station" to the much heavier "Anger '06", Trip Rod has the resources to save rock music."

"They do have a great following in the Central Illinois market."
