At the time\, Simonett had lost most of his music gear\, thanks to a group of enterprising car thieves who'd ransacked his vehicle while he played a show with his previous band. Left with nothing more than an acoustic guitar\, he began piecing together a new band\, this time taking inspiration from bluegrass\, folk and other genres that didn't rely on amplification. Simonett hadn't played any bluegrass music before\, and he filled his lineup with other newcomers to the genre\, including fiddler Ryan Young (who'd previously played drums in a speed metal act) and bassist Tim Saxhaug. Along with mandolinist Erik Berry and banjo player Dave Carroll\, the group began carving out a fast\, frenetic sound that owed as much to rock & roll as bluegrass.\n\n\n\nTrampled by Turtles released their first record\, Songs from a Ghost Town\, in 2004. In a genre steeped in tradition\, the album stood out for its contemporary sound\, essentially bridging the gap between the bandmates' background in rock music and their new acoustic leanings. Blue Sky and the Devil (2005) and Trouble (2007) explored a similar sound\, but it wasn't until 2008 and the band's fourth release\, Duluth\, that Trampled by Turtles received recognition by the bluegrass community. Duluth peaked at number eight on the Billboard bluegrass chart and paved the way for a number of festival appearances. When Palomino arrived in 2010\, it was met with an even greater response\, debuting at the top of the bluegrass chart and remaining in the Top 10 for more than a year. Two years later\, their crossover appeal landed them at number 32 on the Billboard 200 pop charts upon the release of their sixth album\, Stars and Satellites. In addition to major bluegrass and folk festivals\, they began showing up at Coachella\, Bumbershoot and Lollapalooza. The official concert album\, Live at First Avenue\, followed in 2013\, recorded at Minnesota's most famous venue. A year later\, the band returned with the darker-toned Wild Animals\, which bettered its studio predecessor on the album charts\, reaching number 29. Trampled released their latest album Life Is Good On The Open Road in 2018.\n\n \n\nFrankie Lee hails from Stillwater\, Minn. He earned his chops over the years in stints in Austin as well as Los Angeles. While in L.A. he shared the stage with such bands as Dawes\, Cass McCombs Jonathan Wilson and more. His sophomore album\, Stillwater\, tells the story of his hometown a small town between two hills in the middle of America. He's been running from it and to it his whole life.
