==Overview== | |||
Following the dissolution of [[Chopper One]] after parting from the band's label, musicians [[Jason Cropper]] and [[Dallan Baumgarten]] formed Fliptop, alongside bassist [[Scott Shiflett]] and drummer [[Josh Freese]]. When asked about how Fliptop came to exist during [[Reddit Q&A with Jason Cropper - May 2020|a 2020 Reddit.com Q&A]], Cropper said Josh Freese "made that happen." A full-length album was recorded, but only five tracks were mixed down for demo purposes. According to Baumgarten's musician bio [http://thechadwicksband.com/index.php/about-the-band/dallan/], "scheduling turmoil" led to the group's disbandment, and so the album was never released. The band is known to have performed live once, as part of a radio show in March of 2000. At least four of the five mixed songs currently exist in fan circulation. | |||
