About Trigger & Some Dudes Named Roy

 
Portrait of Trigger & Some Dudes Named Roy
TRIGGER & SOME DUDES NAMED ROY

Ross Wells of Zenfilm once described a collection of Trigger music as "Monty Python meets Slim Whitman at Sarah Silverman's house with a lot of espresso." We think we're so much more, but we'll take that. Trigger was raised in Brownwood, Tx., among cowboys, hippies, bankers, preachers, drunks, and politicians. It was an intense and confusing mix. Entering adulthood, Trigger's need for a therapist became apparent, so he married one. As his search for meaning got harder, his music got funnier. Influences include Randy Newman, John Prine, The Fuggs, Robert Earl Keen, The Chad Mitchell Trio, Todd Rundgren, Barenaked Ladies, Commander Cody, The Smothers Brothers, Iris DeMent, Roger Miller, Lyle Lovett, Tom Waits, and Willie. Trigger & Some Dudes Named Roy will invade legendary Sugarhill Studios later this Spring to record a most distinctive collection of music. Be ready to duck.

Not sure what they’re getting at with that one, but no, not right now, at least not that I have to feed. Three neighborhood cats like to lounge in our yard until supper. We’re friendly without the commitment. Do I hate my fami...
