A couple cell phone pics for you who missed last Sunday's performance. Portland's Dylan-esque indie folk group, Blitzen Trapper, is on tour now promoting their new album, "Destroyer of the Void" (out today!). If you're not in Fargo, make sure you catch them in your town later this summer.
The band likely owes much of its popularity to its lead, Eric Earley, whose voice, song-writing, and knack for story-telling have placed the band ahead of the rest with songs like "Furr" and "Black River Killer" just to name a couple. The concert demonstrated this well, and the crowd seemed to really enjoy the show. They played a nice mix of their new stuff and the songs you should already love off their older albums. If you don't know them, here's a taste:
"Heaven and Earth" (off "Destroyer of the Void")
"Not Your Lover (off "Furr")
