Velvet Trip is the Psychedelic music project of Zeppelin Hamilton & Clayton Allen, born and imagined on Gadigal Country, Sydney Australia.
Over the past three years, the duo have tinkered away as the world spun into collective chaos, piecing together an album that has seen through a pandemic, bounced between time zones, and conquered physical and mental demons.
In support of their highly anticipated debut album Harmony Blooms out February 9, Velvet Trip have announced a run of East Coast shows throughout March & April. Including two appearances at Bluesfest over Easter, opening for John Butler Trio at Taronga Zoo and a support slot with Ocean Alley at Summersalt Festival.
2023 saw the release of singles ‘It’s Only Human’, ‘Silly Boy’, ‘Electric Dreams’, and ‘Moving On’, with all four singles receiving massive support from editorial playlisting, rotation on triple j, reaching #1 on the AMRAP Metro Charts, and landing the triple j Unearthed Feature Artist.
Notably, Velvet Trip signed with the prestigious booking agency Cult Artists after touring Australia with Daft Punk collaborators Parcels and graced stages at events like SXSW Sydney and Lost Paradise Festival. They have been featured in the New York Times (T Mag) RUSSH, NME Aus, and were selected to be part of Mushroom Groups ‘First Nations Pathway Program.
