Blitzen Trapper On The Road Again

The wonderfully talented Blitzen Trapper are kicking off an extensive U.S. tour Feb. 22. The Portland group is a collection of gentle, introspective talented fellows with a fondness for the 1960s, '70s, folk, country and wandering, bearded rock and roll, all of which is reflected in the rawness and twang of their soulful live set.
