The Midsummer Country Shindig
Trailer Trash & Honky Tonk Jump
Two of the region’s most popular country groups – Trailer Trash and Honky Tonk Jump – team up for a fun night of honky-tonk dance hall music.
Trailer Trash, the band from honky-tonk heaven, havebeen turning generations of music lovers on to its brand of American roots, country, swing and rockabilly for over 30 years. Their contagious enthusiasm and obvious enjoyment onstage have earned Trailer Trash the reputation of being Minnesota’s premier honky-tonk band. To this day,Trailer Trash is known for playing traditional country music as well as a wide variety of styles from the American hit parade. A typical eclectic set list will span decades and touch the heart of every audience member.
Honky-Tonk Jump plays swingin’ Texas dance hall music in the tradition of Bob Wills, Milton Brown, Ernest Tubb and Spade Cooley with a sprinkling of Hank Williams and other early honky-tonk legends. This band rustles up a rhythm roundup with accordion, twin fiddles, guitar, pedal steel, mandolin, bass, drums and vocals. Their music features signature twin and triple leads on accordion, fiddle, pedal steel and guitar with soulful vocals, all backed by a hard-swingin’ rhythm section. This band has fun and it’s contagious!
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
