About John Faye Power Trip
The John Faye Power Trip was a Wilmington, Delaware-based power-pop band formed in the late 1990s. The band was formed from the ashes of The Caulfields, who released two critically-acclaimed albums for A&M in the mid-1990s and scored one moderate hit with the song "Devil's Diary" (commonly referred to as the "Bigger Than Jesus Song"). Caulfields lead vocalist and songwriter John Faye partnered with Starbelly singer/guitarist Cliff Hillis to create the John Faye Power Trip, who continued to push forward with The Caulfields' brand of left-field power-pop only with new levels of complexity and even more personal, involved songwriting. The band released one album in 1999, which was a hit primarily in indie alt-pop circles. In 2002, the band would re-name themselves Ike, and release four more albums with an evolving line-up in 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2010. For all intents and purposes, the lone album by the John Faye Power Trip is the first Ike album. Like The Caulfields before them, Ike was considerably more commercially successful than the John Faye Power Trip, scoring at least one minor hit with the song "Into Philadelphia" in 2005.
