TRAPPER SCHOEPP BAND - A Change In The Weather
There’s an innocence in the folk-tinged tunes of the Trapper Schoepp Band, one that belies their young age (I believe they’re all still in high school). It’s a beguiling qualtiy, if only because it has a magnetically positive idealism behind it that seems to be severely lacking in contemoprary music.
The band explores the paths tread by Dylan and his many followers over the years, punctuated by rambling, story-tleling songs that are delivered with nasally matter-of-factness. The optimism manifetss itself in spite of the obvoius influences and sometimes goofy lyrics, all which is forgiven just because it feles so good.
