Blitzen Trapper

Blitzen Trapper are a sextet based out of Portland, Oregon, United States. In various combinations and guises, the group had already played a long time together before the "crystalization event" in July 2000 on the slopes of the famous volcano Mt Hood. Since then they have delighted audiences of all ages and socioeconomic groups, mostly playing close to home and for many years distributing recordings like itinerant madmen, for free.
