Tour press release:<\/em> “Flannel-wearing alt-country Northwestern rockers Blitzen Trapper are returning to the Australia. Having announced dates on East Coast Bluesfest the band will also be appearing at West Coast Blues n Roots Festival and headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne.\u00a0 The Portland, Oregon outfit released their third Sub Pop album American Goldwing in September through Inertia. The album was written and recorded in a span of six months, before touring globally, playing at iconic festivals such as Lollapalooza and Newport Folk Festival.According to vocalist Eric Earley, it was during this time the band realised this new album was extraordinary, referring to it as \u201cthe real record\u201d.<\/p>\n

Earley described American Goldwing as about letting the groups loves and early influences out for public display, expressing the album as a culmination of \u201cthe sounds we grew up with, the hard guitar rock and country picking of our younger years mixes with glimmers of our usual space-aging technology and pawn shop Casio apomb. Heavy guitar riffs and blasting drum fills live side-by-side with plucking banjos, wailing harmonicas and muddy slide guitars that make you want to shotgun a beer in the shower while listening to the Stones or Joe Walsh\u201d.<\/p>\n

Forming in 2000, genre-straddling has always been a specialty of BLITZEN TRAPPER, who have masterfully blended indie, folk-rock with alt-Country, but at their heart they have a classic Rock and Roll sound that is drenched in warming harmonies.<\/p>\n

Their live show has always garnered alluring reviews and promised unwavering, passionate energy onstage.<\/p>\n

We caught up with Marty Marquis ahead of their upcoming Aussie shows and chatted about the upcoming Aussie tour, new album American Goldwing and his standing as a cowbell virtuoso!<\/p>\n

WIN A DOUBLE PASS TO EACH OF THEIR MELBOURNE AND SYDNEY SHOWS, CLICK HERE!<\/a><\/p>\n

Hey Marty, thanks for chatting today.\u00a0 So first off, tell me, how was your recent experience at South By Southwest?
\n<\/strong>South By Southwest was great.\u00a0 For example we played eleven shows in four days and there was between 300 and 2000 people at those shows.\u00a0 A lot of them were music biz folks, then there are writers and photographers and what not.\u00a0 So the exposure we would have gotten from those shows would have been greater than doing a huge tour in the USA.<\/p>\n

You guys will be looking for a bit of a holiday when you hit Australia shortly \u00a0by the sounds of it (laughs)?
\n<\/strong>Yes, we’ve got some time off whilst we are there, so we are excited about getting a chance to hang out and see the country a little bit.<\/p>\n

So in just over a week you are headed out to Australia, you guys toured here a few years ago weren\u2019t you?\u00a0 What did that tour involve?
\n<\/strong>We played in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, but it was a whirlwind and we were headed back home after four days.\u00a0 So we didn’t really get to see much of the country as such.<\/p>\n

Do you have a real sense of the bands popularity here in Australia, for example what was the response the last time you toured?
\n<\/strong>Well the crowds were better than I expected.\u00a0 Triple J had picked up on us back in 2007 so there were a lot more Australians who knew about us and came to see the shows than I was expecting.\u00a0 So we shall see what it’s like this time.\u00a0 But it’s definitely a good place for us to come and play.\u00a0 It’s not the same size crowds as we get in the USA obviously which is our biggest market, but Australia is far bigger than somewhere like England where nobody knows about us at all.<\/p>\n

Have you had a chance to check out the Byron Bay Bluesfest lineup, that\u2019s a pretty cool bunch of bands!
\n<\/strong>We are definitely excited about seeing some of those artists who are just legendary.<\/p>\n

So for those that haven\u2019t seen you guys perform before, what do you have to say about your live show?
\n<\/strong>We always get a lot of positive feedback about our live show.\u00a0 We’ve been playing together as a band for about 12 years now and we are pretty tight and tend to jam out a lot of the songs and change them up for the live setting and try to make things interesting for the crowd.\u00a0 There’s a lot more guitar heroics than you might expect, we have some very fine lead guitarists and at points in the set \u00a0where it’s reminiscent of someone like The Allman Brothers.\u00a0 We also even do some country\u2019ish numbers and there’s really just a wide range of styles, as you will see.\u00a0 We have a lot of fun playing!<\/p>\n

Well given you just mentioned some guitar heroics, I believe that you personally are quite the cowbell virtuoso!
\n<\/strong>(Laughs) that’s a very popular instrument!\u00a0 We often joke about starting a band that is just cowbell and harmonica, which I think would go over well with people.\u00a0 I think cowbell is a very democratic instrument, no matter who you are, when you see it played on stage people think, “hey I can play that”!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>You recently released a new album, American Goldwing, so as you tour around America and such, how have people seemed to responded to the album?
\n<\/strong>I think the music on Goldwing is a lot more direct than our previous releases so I think in a live setting, people who aren’t familiar with our songs, the newer songs translate more easily than the more proggy music we have.\u00a0 So yeah, the songs on Goldwing are also really fun to play.<\/p>\n

Given what you said about the songs on Goldwing being more direct, was that the intention, or more just how the songs evolved during the writing and recording sessions?
\n<\/strong>I think we set out to make it a little more simple, but it wasn’t like a huge concern or anything.\u00a0 Our singer\/songwriter Eric Earley had been playing with a country band in Portland and they were quite a good band, so I think the songs came out of him doing some really simple music with these other guys and enjoying how fun it was.<\/p>\n

As you mentioned, Eric is your key songwriter, is that the way that\u2019s always been through the history of the band, or has it evolved to be that way?
\n<\/strong>Definitely Eric is our key songwriter.\u00a0 There are a couple of songs the band plays, which I wrote, but they’ve never been on any record.\u00a0 He’s really a prolific songwriter and his stuff is genius in my opinion.\u00a0 We got together and started this band because we were excited about these demos he had circulated amongst us and the band has continued on that way.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s what, your 6th<\/sup> album now, how did the whole process compare to the past, do you feel you have finally settled into a groove now when it comes to making albums, or do you always like to change things up?
\n<\/strong>Yeah it changes, we like to work with different people and at different studios.\u00a0 Our 2 breakthu records were recorded at our on an old four track.\u00a0 The next one Destroyer Of The Void<\/em> that was recorded at our friend Mike Coykendall\u2019s place and he lived in our neighborhood. The newest one was our friend Greg Williams who we’ve worked with on the past on different things.\u00a0 But yes, it changes from time to time and I think the next record which is as much as half written already, will be recorded at a studio out in the woods and close to the mountains in Oregon.\u00a0 We just recently discovered this studio and it’s fantastic.<\/p>\n

And what of the rest of 2012, what\u2019s on the horizon after you finish up in Australia?
\n<\/strong>We have pretty much a full year of touring ahead in North America.\u00a0 We are playing some festivals and we\u2019ll be continuing to push this record and play it for people live.\u00a0 We are enjoying it and it’s looking like the schedule is filling out for the rest of the year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
