Reviews
“Word spreads fast about Trout Fishing in America…Rare mix of musicianship, humor and inspiration…They’ve created a repertoire of original music that is a delightful mix of folk and rock highlighted by impeccable dual lead vocals and harmonies…”
Billboard Magazine
“…two songwriters who are as unique in musical style as they are in appearance.”
BMI Nashville
“Those familiar with the acoustic duo Trout Fishing in America appreciate their uncanny ability to create a full-bodied ensemble sound.”
Guitar Player
“From the moment Grimwood and Idlet took the stage, the energy was pure joy. With Keith on bass and Ezra on guitar, the duo filled the room with toe-tapping rhythms, quick wit, and a contagious sense of fun that had the audience laughing one minute and singing along the next. Their chemistry was undeniable as would be with two lifelong friends who’ve turned decades of collaboration into a musical language all their own. Whether they were sharing stories, cracking clever jokes, or educating us on the different electric instruments, the spirit of play never stopped. It wasn’t just a concert, it was a community gathering that united us all as one.” -Broadway World

Study Guides & Workshops
“The teachers at the Alma Intermediate School were amazed by the songwriting workshops. The educational value of the workshops far exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend the workshops that can be paired with the performances. The teachers have requested that we also do a school concert next year for all the students in the intermediate school as well as a future songwriting workshop for all fifth graders! Thank you for a wonderful experience!”

“Keith and Ezra’s live shows are full of energy and audience participation. I have found them to be remarkably sensitive to their with the flexibility to adapt their show for the age groups attending their performance…I can’t recommend Trout Fishing in America enough to anyone who is looking for a family music concert, or an arts program that will involve kids in the creative process.”
