"Duluth's finest Jameson swigging lads, Trampled by Turtles, take to the stage to quench the Lake Superior hippie/yippie/cow-punk contingent's insatiable thirst for mosh-pit inducing hardcore bluegrass."
-transistor transmission, dec '04
2004 Minnesota Music Award Nominee - Best Bluegrass Band
"The Turtles excellent musicianship and songwriting skills are accented by songwriter Dave Simonett's world-weary vocals, which belie the band's young age."

It's Funny...
author: tim whiteIt's funny how I got turned onto the turtles. One night I googled,"bluegrass" to find more bands.I found a web page with bluegrass bands A-Z. Looking down the list I came across Trampled By Turtles. The funny thing is,I have a fantasy football team named,"The Rabid Turtles", so I checked them out and was blown away! Ended up buying two of their CD's and I'm waiting for the other to come back in stock.

I first laid my hands on Songs From A Ghost Town which I found in a used cd player a co-worker bought. After hearing the cd once I had to find and buy the other two. Love listening to them all.
Great Music, Great Energy, and Great CD
author: LuckyMy friend from Minneap raved about you, and when he came to visit me in Portland, you were playing at the Goodfoot, my favorite stomping ground. You blew my socks off, literally. I danced so hard, I had to kick off my socks to let the old dogs bark a little. Bought your Blue Sky and the Devil CD.....it' made our 3 week road trip a rockin' good time. I think there's an indentation in my floor boards from our stompin' feet. Thanks! I sincerely mean it! You are great! Come back and visit us again. Much Love from Portland, Oregon.
Yellowstone is blue...grass that is
author: ErockJust got back to Wisconsin from Yellowstone where I watched Trampled by Turtles under the Montana moon. Couldn't have been more perfect, the CD keeps the memory and my soul warm...now pass me that bottle of Whisky...I need to play Drinking in the Morning one more time!
Great and Different...
author: MattI saw these guys in MPLS and had to buy their CD. It rocks, the band rocks and their other disc is equally as good. Thanks Turtles and we will see you at 10,000 lakes!
WOO-HOO!!
author: Ethan and JaneWe heard about Trampled By Turtles from a relative in MN who had just seen a live show. She told us to check out the website and it was then that we knew we had to have a cd of our own. We purchased one and our lives have been made whole. Song lyrics, music, instrumentals - are all great! Thanks for the wonderful cd and the many jigs it has created in our household.
