Photos: Trampled by Turtles brought high-energy bluegrass to The Truman

Trampled by Turtles brought the kind of emotional, evocative energy a band can create by honoring traditional bluegrass with a contemporary twist. With mandolin, fiddle, banjo, guitar, and upright bass driving the music, the Minnesota-based group has perfected their lightning-fast picking and a willingness to let acoustic instruments get loud. The strings chase one another, trade melodies, and build momentum until the music feels like it’s barely holding itself together. Beneath that speed is a more reflective side, with Dave Simonett’s songwriting bringing a thoughtful, sometimes melancholy edge to songs that can turn an entire room into a singalong. That balance between introspection and outright musical abandon has helped Trampled by Turtles move beyond the bluegrass scene and onto stages shared with artists across the Americana, folk, and rock worlds.
