Family Concert - Trout Fishing In America @RVCC

Saturday November 16, 2024
2:00 PM

There is a handful of musical duos who can say they've been playing together for over 45 years and Trout Fishing In America is one of them. Meeting in the 1970s in Houston, TX, Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet were a part of the five-piece band St. Elmo's Fire. When the group dissolved, Grimwood and Idlet formed Trout Fishing in America, named after Richard Brautigan's novel. With Grimwood on upright and electric bass and Idlet playing a variety of guitars, the singer/songwriters built a nationwide fanbase by delivering a percussive, vibrant sound and a dynamic stage presence. TFIA earned critical recognition as an eclectic folk-rock band who writes songs for all ages. The band received four Grammy nominations in the Best Music Albums For Children category, as well as three National Indie Awards, multiple Parent's Choice and NAPPA Gold awards, and The American Library Award.
