===Death of Wes Berggren and split=== [[Wes Berggren]] was found dead of a [[drug overdose]] in his apartment on October 27, 1999. The Dallas County Medical Examiner's office found traces of [[cocaine]], [[propoxyphene]], and [[benzodiazepine]] in his body.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.dallasobserver.com/1999-11-25/music/tripping-falling/ |title=Tripping, Falling |accessdate=December 20, 2008 | publisher=Dallas Observer|date=November 25, 1999 }}</ref> With Berggren's death, the band cancelled its upcoming tour dates and finished some minor recording sessions for the final album. The self-titled album was released posthumously, with Berggren's father Don playing a [[Fender Rhodes]] electric piano on the unfinished song "Soothing Jubilee". The album included a re-recording of "One Through Four", a song originally featured on ''Bill''. Tripping Daisy officially disbanded on December 14, 1999. After the band disbanded, Tim DeLaughter, Mark Pirro, Bryan Wakeland and Jeff Bouck formed the [[chamber pop]] group [[The Polyphonic Spree]]. Ben Curtis went on to join brother Brandon Curtis in the progressive [[space rock]] trio called [[The Secret Machines]] and later, the [[dream pop]] trio [[School of Seven Bells]]. Curtis died on December 29, 2013, from complications of lymphoma.
