This was a beautiful outdoor scenery venue event. The staff was on point and very gracious to all the guests as a sold out evening. Colin opened the show to get the crowd in the groove. Chris Trapper is a great story teller as evident by his voice and songs, which are a true testament to his continued success as an artist. Watch out for his new album due out this year (his 10th solo + 3 w/ the Push Stars). Chris tours constantly and is a must see for a totally enjoyable show at any venue.

Chris Trapper Biography
The trick to the irresistibly organic, pure pop sound is that the music, and even the lead singer, take a back seat to the real star: the songs. As the principal songwriter and singer for nationally acclaimed
alt-rock trio The Push Stars, Chris Trapper is equally sure-footed in his solo career. When on hiatus from The Push Stars, Chris writes, records and tours in support of his solo CD’s.
“Trapper sounds like the 21st-century young popster he is.” The Washington Post
“Chris Trapper plays unassuming pop rock with a touch of Big Star soul...”
The Chicago Reader
His words and music can best be described as an interesting blend of 1950’s pop, 1990’s rock and old-timey jazz with the ever-present under story of Chris’ distinctive baritenor. It’s intricate power-pop with a compelling knack for telling everyday stories.
For Trapper, it all traces back to those first, halting, joyful songs, when he found another language in music--a deeper language – that connected him to others in a way more profound than ordinary
conversation.
"Especially when I was a kid, but it's still true--I'm kind of desperate to get thoughts out in a complete way. Songs do that for me, so I know how much they can mean. It's important to me to be inclusive, rather than perceived as intellectual or clever or so creative that people don't get it. I really want to reach people and do it in a way that makes them feel part of what I'm trying to say. Because, like I
said, I know how much songs can mean."
His ability to craft songs that are both elegant and accessible is evident on each collection. His organic understanding of classic pop melody is infectious. There is a smart, honest quality to the lyrics that never panders.
“Trapper's songs don't need any Stratocaster bluster to get under your
skin.“ The Boston Herald
Trapper writes songs that at first listen are greeted as old, familiar friends. His musical stories are accessible but never trivial, smart but never snobbish, honest but never pandering. He writes about real folks coping with real lives--people whose far-flung People Magazine dreams never pan out--laced with a properly jaded sense of humor and the essential survival tool of not taking yourself too seriously.
“Chris Trapper would be the first guy to tell you he's always been unhip, even sort of square, when it comes to rock 'n' roll attitude.” The Boston Globe
