Blitzen Trapper is really good.

any comparisons?

[spikewilbury]

They kind of have an alternative country sound kind of like Wilco or Drive By Truckers. They use two keyboardists who do some cool things. I hear Neil Young, Johnny Cash, and Grateful Dead influences on the new record. The lyrics are really good as well.

They're also really great live. I've seen them twice in the last month. Once in Seattle and once in Portland.
