Trapper John has spent the last three years building a large and impressive rock resume in their hometown of Columbus, Ohio. After being awarded the Clear Channel Musicianship Award for their performance at the 2002 BrewFest held at the Cleveland Tower City Amphitheater, they independently released their first full length album, "West Coast Stereo" to much critical
acclaim and local radio airplay.
In 2003, Trapper John was accepted to both the NXNE festival in Toronto as well the Midpoint Music festival in Cincinnati. In addition, Trapper is releasing a new EP in the fall of 2003.
