FitzGerald's Welcomes Winner of Telluride Bluegrass Festival Competition

Submitted by FitzGerald’s.

Buzz is growing about this highly-talented Colorado group. From Trout Steak Revival’s beginning as an informal jamming unit during treks through the Front Range, this Denver-based roots quintet has evolved into one of Colorado’s most tightly knit bluegrass bands. Their brand of heartfelt songwriting blends dynamic musicianship with intricately woven harmonies, all tied together with the unmistakable sound of their years of friendship.

The five-piece has shown a tenacity for quick picking and all the right polish without sacrificing the raw feeling of well-executed bluegrass. The band has earned a place in the Mountain State’s roots scene, performing to sold-out audiences, winning an Emmy Award for a soundtrack with Rocky Mountain PBS, and recently, winning the 2014 Telluride Bluegrass Festival band competition. Keeping an eye on traditions of the past but boldly forging into new territory, Trout Steak takes us back to memories of whiskey, laughter, and the misty high country where the band was born.
