Trout
Fishing in America
May 12th
@ 7:30pm
Trout Fishing in America is the long-standing if unlikely musical partnership of Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet. As individuals they are about as different as one can imagine. Together they blend seamlessly in a way that has captured the imagination (and hearts) of audiences of all ages for over four decades. Each of them brings out the best in the other, and the joy that comes from this musical interaction is contagious and impossible to resist. The duo has earned four Grammy Nominations for their family CDs. Their willingness to make fun of our most annoying habits in one song, and then touch our hearts with tender and passionate images of family life in the next, is what makes the connection between Trout Fishing in America and their audience so real. Hogan & Moss and the Real America will open this show.
“. . . some of the most lyrically creative, musically sophisticated, vocally muscular musicmakers in the family music business."

“. . . a mix of cheeky lyrics and soulful harmonies. Their live shows blend campy humor and instrumental prowess . . ."
