Trout Fishing in America : Truth is Stranger Than Fishin'
Log in to add to your wishlist
Trout Fishing in America, who take their name from a Richard Brautigan novel of the 1960s, sound more like a band than the guitar/bass songwriting duo they actually are. Their songs are quite tasty, coming from the lighter end of the Texas music scene.

Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet-who take their name from a Richard Brautigan novel of the 1960s-sound more like a band than the guitar/bass songwriting duo they actually are. Their songs are quite tasty, coming as they do from the lighter end of the Texas folk-rock side of things, and the former Houston duo reels in some choice covers as well-John Gorka's 'Prom Night in Pig Town' and Nashvillian Dana Cooper's 'Lucky Guy,' for instance. If the humorous songs don't get you, the straight ones will.
