Is there anything more Glorious than a fantastic song? One that makes you smile or dance—a melody that takes you back to a wonderful memory or reminds you of a favorite person or place? We’ve been meaning to incorporate more music onto the site for a while, and so we’ve created a new category called Glorious Tunes, which will feature songs from modern American bands we love. This week it’s Trampled by Turtles, a soulful bluegrass group out of Deluth, Minnesota who recently released their sixth album, Stars and Satellites. Check out their outstanding cover of Arcade Fire’s “Rebellion (Lies)”, one of the performances from the AV Club’s musical web series Undercover. If you like what you hear, take a look at their upcoming tour dates—this summer they’ll be playing cities across the U.S. including Newport, San Francisco, Omaha, and Chicago.
Looking forward to their gig in Fayetteville!
