==Background==
Cojum Dip was formed in 2004 while Bora was attending the University of Michigan. The band would hold their first concert at the Duderstadt Center in February 2005 and performed in Michigan through 2005 and 2006. After their last concert at [[The Blind Pig]], where the band covered [[Inside The Mind Of Simon]], Bora moved to Los Angeles in 2006 and the band was put on hold.
