Trampled by Turtles

Trampled by Turtles (also known as TBT for short) is a bluegrass band from Duluth, Minnesota that describes its special brand of the celebrated and uniquely American genre as "thrashgrass." Proclaimed by music publications as being quite possibly the best live act in the state of Minnesota, Trampled by Turtles has a talent for convincing audiences of widely disparate musical tastes to enjoy its markedly untraditional style of bluegrass. Having released several albums since the band's debut in 2004, Trampled by Turtles is already starting to see its influence spread by leaps and bounds, leading many to label the band as one of the first to bring bluegrass into the 21st Century.
