"Salvation" "Who's Calling?" "Rich/Poor" and "Trouble" showcase Dave Simonett's excellent abilities as a song-writer and front-man for a contemporary blugrass band from Duluth, MN. The band features a mandolin, guitar, bass, fiddle, and banjo. What sets Trampled by Turtles from a lot of other bluegrass acts is the way in which the fiddle/violin creates an atmosphere around the music at the slower tempos that also characterize Trampled by Turtles' music. Dave Simonett's melodies run well with the blugrass format, even though a lot of his songs are good enough to stand alone without the backing of additional stringed instruments.
