Trip Viaje

Trip Emeka​Greetings! My name is Trip Viaje and I am a dreamer. I write music and stories for the radio. When I’m not jamming or working out I organize cd’s for money down at KAOS 89.3 FM Olympia.

Growing up in West Seattle, I was very inspired by the legends of Rock hailing from my motherland; Jimi Hendrix, Heart, and Nirvana to name a few. It isn’t hard to see where these influences shine through in my work today.

“I believe there is music in everything and to call something music is to deem it sacred. More than anything music is appreciation.”
-Trip Viaje
 
I have lived many lives in the 33 years I’ve visited Earth. From dry wall contracting, to high rise window cleaning, to line cook, stand up comic, I am a man of many hats. As a child it was my dream was to become a scientist. That is until second grade when he was informed about pollution. “Why don’t you tell this to the scientists?” Trip said to his teacher.
“They know about it.” “And they’re not doing anything about?” That’s when I lost faith in the government, and decided the best way to help humanity was to become a rock star. Fast forward 161 dog years. My life is slightly different than my eight year old self anticipated, but the message is still the same. Waking the world up and forwarding the evolution of humanity through musical exploration. This is how I met Ivy and Noah, who are also walking the path of musical ascension.
