Nearly every week I find myself writing a post about a newly announced Tralf show. On the heels of a deafening Swans performance this past Friday and buzz worthy set this evening from Wild Nothing, the downtown venue is set to welcome Blitzen Trapper back to Buffalo on Friday, October 4th. Over the course of 4 full length alums, the PAC NW band has covered genres from space rock, to freak folk, to autumnal Neil Young/Bob Dylan inspired rock. The band is no stranger to Buffalo. A few years back, they were the only positive to what was an otherwise insufferable and boring solo Iron and Wine show at Asbury Hall, and a couple Octobers ago, they played to one of the fullest rooms I have ever seen at Mohawk Place.

Tickets for the show are currently on sale for $16 in advance, $18 day of.
