Their latest album, Life is Good on the Open Road, was released on May 4, 2018, coming in at number 188 on the Billboard 200, and Rolling Stone Magazine praised the album with, "Life Is Good on the Open Road balances delicate ballads and loose, upbeat romps, with frontman Dave Simonett's strident voice connecting the dots."
Trampled By Turtles were formed in 2003 by lead singer, guitarist and harmonica player Dave Simonett, Bassist and singer Tim Saxhaug Banjo player and singer, Dave Carroll, mandolin player and singer Erik Berry, Fiddler and singer Ryan Young, and cellist and singer Eamonn McLain. The band have been honored with a star mural on the outside of the Minneapolis nightclub First Avenue, which recognizes performers that have played sold-out shows or have otherwise demonstrated a major contribution to the culture at the iconic venue. “Receiving a star might be the most prestigious public honor an artist can receive in Minneapolis,” according to journalist Steve Marsh.
