Kyle Mikolajczyk has been heavily embedded in the Detroit rock scene for most of his life. Kyle brings a very unique style to the bass which often includes pensive bass lines followed by bursts of heart felt riffs. When asked about his philosophy towards music referred to his music journey as the Pursuit of happiness & the Endless Pursuit of Dreams, saying he feels his goal is "Breaking down the walls of normalcy in a world gone gray.

Preston Preiss brings the “Old School Tone” & Flavor" that your ears long for not to mention he is a great singer. Preston was born & raised “Downriver” Michigan exposing him in a vast range of musical influences that pushed him to seek his own distinct approach to music (check out his "no sticks" drum solo on youtube). Preston has toured & recorded nationally and performed among the world elite. Preston was also a long-time member of Black Feather & HazardHead.

Kyle, Preston and Michael will be playing a series of shows this fall so watch for videos of their upcoming performances which we will be posting in Sept/Oct.

08/08/18 Swizzille Trip will be playing a show in Westland MI at the Token Lounge on Saturday Sept. 8th. ST will perform around 9:30pm and will be opening for an awesome Detroit band Black Feather. ST will again be at the Token on January 26th when they open for Hazardhead.
