Скачать или смотреть Backstage with Ego Trip: The UK's Rising Grunge Band

When four musicians with a shared passion for grunge and heavy guitar-driven rock come together, something electric happens. That's exactly what we discovered when UK band Ego Trip joined us on Franklin's Garage to Stage podcast.

Beginning at a brewery open mic night when guitarist Bean and vocalist Will decided they needed a band name rather than having their individual names written on the board, Ego Trip has evolved into a powerhouse of modern grunge with distinctive flair. Their performances are thoughtfully crafted experiences - starting fast and bright, building to crushing heaviness in the middle, then easing listeners back out with lightness by the end.

What struck me most during our conversation was the band's genuine camaraderie and collaborative spirit. While they jokingly call their dynamic a "dictatorship," it's clear that each member brings unique contributions that elevate their sound. From Ellis's foundation-building drum beats to Will's powerful vocals, Bean's riff-crafting abilities, and Daz's complementary bass lines, Ego Trip represents true musical partnership.

The band shared candid stories about their journey - from embarrassing on-stage moments (like losing vocal capabilities during their entire set or accidentally erasing amp presets mid-performance) to the thrill of playing Kendall Calling festival. They're currently preparing to release their first album recorded at Rex Studio in Carlisle and embarking on their next tour leg across the UK.

For fellow musicians, Ego Trip offers this wisdom: "The best time to take the leap is yesterday. If you wait to feel ready, you never will." Their parting message to fans and listeners emphasized supporting local music scenes - attending sparsely-populated shows, buying that slightly overpriced pint, and simply showing appreciation to performers who put their hearts on stage. Check out Ego Trip wherever you stream music and catch their high-energy live shows if you're in the UK!
