When I Was a Dinosaur




You gotta love a singing group that can play "Teddy Bear's Picnic" to a bunch of drunks in an Austin nightclub at 1 o'clock in the morning and get away with it. I first encountered "Trout Fishing in America" at the Kerrville Folk Festival and fell in love with this marvelously eclectic folk/rock duo. Their music is difficult to describe as are Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet whose hair has gone white over their 40 year collaboration.  They do a lot of kids songs, but their repertoire' of adult songs, both original and familiar standards makes them fun at any age.  Check out their website at:

This is the kind of stuff you want rattling the speakers in your doors when you pull up to a stoplight, if only to make people question your sanity in the next car over. And who cares what they think anyway.

Future fossil fuel, that's all they ever was.....

Enjoy!
