Bill by Tripping Daisy
Bill is an album by Tripping Daisy, released in 1992. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 9 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “My Umbrella”, on 9 lists with a best position of #100.
Bill, the debut album from Dallas's Tripping Daisy, first came out on the local Dragon Street label in November 1992 and did well enough, around 15,000 copies, that Island picked it up and put it back out on its Island Red Label on July 20, 1993. The reissue dropped the track "Green Tambourine" and tucked two unlisted tracks onto the end of the last song.
Tim DeLaughter sang and played guitar, with Wes Berggren on guitar and Mark Pirro on bass, and the sound is grunge with a psychedelic streak, loud and fuzzy but with a goofy, kaleidoscopic grin peeking through. "My Umbrella" was the breakout, a woozy, crunching singalong that spent two weeks on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart, peaking at No. 24. In 2023 the album came back on vinyl as part of the DFW Legacy Series.
