LP Trixie

LP Trixie is an original alternative rock band based in Chicago, known for writing, recording, and performing their own music. You can explore the band’s original material and experience their live sound through professionally mixed performance videos captured from actual shows and live events.

While original music remains at the core of LP Trixie, the band’s live performances also feature a carefully curated selection of cover songs that align naturally with their sound and influences. Their setlists draw inspiration from the post-punk movement of the late ’70s and early ’80s — including artists like The Police, U2, Joy Division, and The Cure — as well as the post-punk revival and alternative rock explosion of the early 2000s, including bands like The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol, and Hole.

What sets LP Trixie apart is their focus on avoiding overly predictable cover-band standards. Instead, the band performs songs more commonly associated with festival lineups such as Riot Fest, Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, and Isle of Wight — music that connects with passionate fans of alternative and indie rock while remaining authentic to the band’s identity.

Within Chicago, LP Trixie primarily performs original music showcases and club performances. For summer festivals, community events, and select private bookings, the band can tailor performances to include a balanced mix of recognizable alternative rock covers alongside standout original material.

LP Trixie delivers a high-energy, guitar-driven live show built around strong vocals, atmospheric guitars, and a modern alternative rock sound rooted in Chicago’s independent music scene.
