Description
Flash back circa 2001/02, John and Christine Lipfert were playing in After Any Accident. Stewart Alaniz shared the stage at many AAA shows in his band, the Real Diffs Deluxe. The two bands complimented each other well on stage, each walking a fine line between math and other rock influences.
Flash forward to October 2004. Both bands had broken up, as bands do. John and Christine were hanging out at the Hollywood Alley in Mesa, AZ and ran into Stewart, who asked if they wanted to get together and jam a bit. John was approached right around the same time by the video game music rock band Minibosses to replace departing guitarist Fred Johnson. John accepted, and in turn approached Minibosses guitarist Aaron Burke to share guitar duties in the new group with Christine and Stewart. The group jammed for several months, picked out the name Chief Beef, and played their first show on March 31st, 2005. The response was immediately positive.
The rest of 2005 was spent refining the bands sound, and playing many shows around the Phoenix area and beyond. By the end of 2005, Chief Beef had shared the stage with several great touring bands such as Nomeansno, Triandodge, Riddle of Steel, the Sleeping People and others. Aaron chose to part ways amicably with the band at the end of 2005 to rekindle a previous effort in Other Voices with former members of Death of Marat.
John, Christine and Stewart continued on as a three piece and recorded their debut album, Something About Rock in June/July 2006. The album is 11 songs of solid rock and roll, with powerful guitars, bass and drums accented by melodic vocal harmonies. Recorded by veteran Larry Elyea at Minds Eye Digital whose studio work has won many awards and includes an impressive list of clients.
Chief Beef plans to tour regionally in support of the album. For additional information, sound clips, show dates and more, check out www.chiefbeefband.com and www.myspace.com/chiefbeef.
