The experimental folk/rock band known as Blitzen Trapper was established in 2000 by founding members Marty Marquis, Michael Van Pelt, Brian Adrian Koch, Erik Menteer, and Eric Earley. Originally performing under the name Garmonbozie, Blitzen Trapper self-released material for two years before establishing themselves under their new name, releasing their first self-titled album as Blitzen Trapper in 2003, on their own record label.
But it was the album Wild Mountain Nation that earned Blitzen Trapper a nod form Rolling Stone, placing the title rack on its list of 100 Best Songs of the year. The album also earned the group acclaim from Spin Magazine and The Nerve, and ultimately earned the group a record contract with Sub Pop Records. Next came Fur, which in 2008 ranked in the top twenty on the Rolling Stone list. The albums Destroyer of the Void (2010) and American Goldwing (2011) followed, both reaching into the top twenty on the alternative and rock charts. The albums VII (2013) and All Across This Land (2015) followed, in addition to three live albums released between 2014 and 2016.
Blitzen Trapper has been on the rise now for a full decade, with no signs of slowing down. The group released their latest album, Wild & Reckless, in 2017, and will be touring into 2018 in support of the release.
