Trampled by Turtles are from Duluth, Minnesota, where frontman Dave Simonett initially formed the group as a side project in 2003. 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. Their crossover appeal has landed them on the #1 spot of Billboard’s Bluegrass Charts on every record they’ve released while playing marquee festivals like Coachella, ACL Fest, and Lollapalooza. Countless tours with diverse artists ranging Shakey Graves, Zach Bryan, Wilco, Caamp, Mt Joy, Willie Nelson, Avett Brothers, Lord Huron and many more have followed solidifying a loyal fanbase. TbT's last full length album Alpenglow was produced by Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy. 2025 began with the band releasing a cover of Bon Iver’s “From Emma” with Caamp’s Taylor Meier (aka Sumbuck) on lead vocals. A few new collaborations are set to be announced in the coming weeks.

I had a magic carpet ride! So much I could say about tonight’s Andrew J Brady on a Saturday night. These men played! They played some more! 3 song encore and we were left wanting more. Thank you. It was a special night
The Andrew J Brady Music Center Cincinnati, OHexcellent place to see a bluegrass band like tbt. more intimate, more relaxed, and wonderful sound in an area with unreal scenery. tbt sounded wonderful, and adding the standup bass really helps balance the higher pitched instruments. good vibez and good timez......
Red Rocks Amphitheatre Morrison, CORed Rocks was amazing. Trampled by Turtles was absolutely awesome. So much energy to bring that crowd along for a great evening. Josiah and the Bonnevilles was exactly what the evening needed to get us rolling.
Red Rocks Amphitheatre Morrison, COFourth time I’ve seen TBT. By far the best show yet. Granted, I wasn’t a fan of the last album. Love the new one though! Epic show. Can’t get Trampled enough. (That’s my trademark, btw!)
BAYFRONT PARK Duluth, MNShakey Graves was a pleasant surprise and was amazing. Trampled, as per usual, phenomenal. Great set list. This was my third Trampled show this year (second night in a row) and they never disappoint.
