MN phenomenon Trampled by Turtles are joining forces
with Nashville barnburners the Infinite Stringdusters for the “Fly Palomino” Tour.

Trampled by Turtles’ blend of dazzling speedgrass – one critic described it as “having your face melted off by a mandolin” – coupled with thoughtful, Townes Van Zant-esque originals launched them from hometown phenomenon to national status.
Their most recent release, Palomino, entered the Billboard Bluegrass chart at #1; but the band’s unique sound, incorporating the band members’ personal musical backgrounds in punk and rock and roll, makes them a hard act to pigeonhole. TBT’s high-energy shows, featuring tight harmonies, dazzling picking and haunting songs is what brings in converts of all musical persuasions. This show will knock you outtta your rocking chair, shawl and all, and challenge all your preconceived notions of the bluegrass genre!
