Day 2 Tripping Lily band in South Yarmouth

Tripping Lily will be playing at the The Cultural Center of Cape Cod Friday night May 6th at 8pm.  Join your friends for a fun night at the Center’s music café for an evening of live music in South Yarmouth.

Tripping Lily is local Cape Cod pop folk quartet from West Yarmouth but plays all over the East Coast.  You only have to  hear them once to become fans of Tripping Lily.  This young quartet might be described as a string band with pop music sensibilities, or perhaps a cutting edge vocal quartet with acoustic instruments.  With two Independent Music Award nominations, being featured on Showtime’s New Hit Series “The Big C”, hitting number one for several weeks on Boston’s Folk Station WUMB it is no wonder why the Boston Globe called the band “…..a genre unto itself.”Campfire Festival (evening) - May 25 '09 tripping lily

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 Lily’s pop-rock groundwork is cross-fertilized with folk music and cutting edge vocal harmonies. The band’s unique ability to absorb traditional music while speaking to the here and now is proof of their versatility as contemporary musicians.
