The Trapper Schoepp Band
Posted by: Shepizzle in Bands, Downloads, Indie Folk, Indie Rock, Trapper Schoepp Band
The Trapper Schoepp (pronounced “Shep”) Band on Shepizzle.com… it just has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? I suppose it’s only fitting that I share this indie folk rockin’ band from Wisconsin’s music with you.
These guys have nailed an indie folk sound that is genuine and fun. The vocals are good and the melodies are fun and mostly upbeat. Others have compared the Trapper Schoepp Band’s sound to that of Wilco, but I don’t know if I would go that far…
Have a listen:
I wasn’t even going to mention that these kids are still in high school, lest your prejudice stand in the way of you enjoying the music, but now that you have had a listen, it makes them that much more impressive, don’t you think?
Check it!

Nice! I have to say, after finding out that these guys are only teenagers, they only gained more cred. in my book. Good for them for making such good music at such a young age. I’m excited to see where they end up.

Thanks for the review, Shepizzle! We are no Wilco, that’s for damn sure. This album is available on iTunes if you’re so inclined. Recommended tracks from myself are Falling Back and Programmed.
