Catchy, weird and wonderful, The Field Trip can't exactly be pinned down to one genre, instead juxtaposing different sounds together for an eclectic joyride. Hailing from the land of magic kingdoms and Mickey Mouse ears, the five members of The Field Trip prove how fun they can be with their cover of The Jungle Book classic “Wanna Be U” while still maintaining their own original alternative pop sound; “Cowboy Tom” hooks you in for a slow second, surprising you with its blast of infectious pop melodies and rock chords. Ride along with The Field Trip tonight at The Continental Room with Death Hymn Number 9 and Feral Kizzy.
