Chelsea was an early 70's band from New York City. Known most notably for their drummer Peter Criss of Kiss fame. They released one album, the self titled album Chelsea in 1970 and then collapsed during the recording of their unreleased second album.[2]

In August 1971 the band became Lips (a trio consisting of Criss and his Chelsea bandmates Michael Benvenga and Stan Penridge). By the spring of 1973, Lips was just the duo of Criss and Penridge and then eventually disbanded completley.

Their sound has been compared to the Moody Blues and Procol Harum.[1]
