"...his songs aren’t just frameworks to hang his sizzling, meaty six-string solos around. Rather they are melodically and especially lyrically potent examples of a musician now at the top of his game." – American Songwriter
"In another 30 years, it won’t just be his songs that serve as ghosts to those he influenced but also his overall resilience to push through any obstacle and continue to do what he loves." – Guitar World
One of rock music's most long-standing, legendary guitarists, Walter Trout is coming back to rock the Payomet tent Monday, August 26 for another electrifying night of music.
Walter Trout has been nothing short of prolific over the course of his seven decades on this Earth. He just released his 30th solo album over a career that has spanned the globe, and delivered notoriety as one of the great purveyors of the blues and blues rock. Trout's history is equal parts thriller, romance, suspense and horror. There are musical fireworks, critical acclaim and fists-aloft triumph, offset by wilderness years, brushes with the jaws of narcotic oblivion, and the survival of an organ transplant few come back from. From 1973, when he left his New Jersey home headed to Los Angeles, he has followed a road that afforded him an opportunity to just play, sharing the stage as a sideman with Jesse Ed Davis, Big Mama Thornton, John Lee ******, Lowell Fulson, Joe Tex, and of course the great John Mayall (following a four year tenure in Canned Heat).
