Going all the way back to the early ‘90s, Tim and David have been writing songs together. A lot of songs, actually. Some so bad they’re funny (though unintentionally so); others that we think are pretty good. We‘ve managed to produce two Chip & Drifty albums — “All Doped Up” and “So Fine a Lady” — in over 12 years, which some people might think makes us slow. We like to think of it as putting our ideas in a crock pot and letting them cook for a number of years over a low heat. Like chili.

Now where were we? Oh yeah, we’ve got some stuff for you to listen to and watch so you might leave here with a better understanding of the music and entertainment sensation that is Chip & Drifty. So scroll friends, scroll like the wind.

How ’bout a few complete songs — digitized directly from cassette — from our first album, “All Doped Up”? This album was recorded in David’s dank basement using a Fostex four-track tape recorder back in 1992, and it shows. Chip & Drifty was a brand-new band at the time. That sorta shows, too. But it was a blast to record those songs. Enjoy.

Though we haven’t recorded any of our recent shows that have featured our full band, we do have some a few scenes from an acoustic performance or two, which tend to feature a lot of participation from the audience. Just click on the screengrab and the movie will play.
