Blitzen Trapper Return to Australia


Flannel-wearing alt-country Northwestern rockers Blitzen Trapper are returning to Australia. Having announced dates on Byron Bay Bluesfest the band will also be appearing at West Coast Blues 'N' Roots Festival and headlining shows in Sydney and Melbourne.

"Sent their fans into a fit of delirium, as those in attendance begged and
pleaded for more."

"In an imaginary musical marriage, Led Zeppelin's edge and Lynyrd Skynyrd's folksy twangs had a baby. Taken a step further, that baby procreated with Tom Petty's voice. BLITZEN TRAPPER would be the Led-Skynyrd grandchild's name."

"CEARLEY's solo highlighted the folk roots of the band's music and resembled the soulful crooning of BOB DYLAN. BLITZEN TRAPPER displays a multi-faceted distinctiveness that translates into a truly superb live music experience with each member of the band wielding different instruments throughout the entire set."
