TROUT FISHING IN AMERICA REELS IN NEW TUNES WITH LATEST RELEASE "inFINity"

Duo's Fifth Family Album Available Now

Prairie Grove, AR - Award-winning recording group Trout Fishing in America 
scales new heights with inFINity, the band's fifth album for family 
listening.  As is true of all of their releases, Trout Fishing in America 
balances razor-sharp musicianship with lyrics that never talk down to kids.  
The latest release from independent label Trout Records, inFINity swam into 
stores nationwide mid-September.

Trout Fishing in America (aka Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet) saw the inFINite 
musical possibilities seamlessly leap from folk to rock to jazz to, yes, even 
some funky stuff in the course of 13 songs, all of which walk that delicate 
balance of entertaining kids and adults alike.

"inFINity is our newest collection of off-center observations on kids, life 
and the dizzy-spinning world we live in," say Grimwood and Idlet, both 
fathers who find endless inspiration from their own children.

The band's trademark humor is evident on several songs, notably "You Can't 
Go" and the relentlessly peppy "Happy That You're Here." "Sailing" indulges 
the duo's fondness for puns, and "Your Name Backwards" goes for the childhood 
wordplay that young listeners enjoy.

"Are We There Yet?" deals with long car trips and how a family finds a way to 
pass the time. "Patience is not something we're born with," says Idlet, "it's 
something we learn on long car trips."  "Junk Food Jump" combines a '70s 
musical vibe (Grimwood refers to it as "Shaft meets Charlie Brown") with a 
menu that only a kid could come up with.  The album's final track, "Say 
Something Sweet," has its origins from nearly a half-century ago, when 
Grimwood's dad made up a little ditty to sing to the crying infant Keith. 

Trout Fishing in America is a nationally acclaimed performing and recording 
group based in northwest Arkansas.  While they have a strong following for 
their sophisticated repertoire of music for grownups, they have also garnered 
national awards for their four previous recordings for families.  The duo has 
been featured on the Today Show, NPR's "All Things Considered" and "Morning 
Edition," and has performed at the White House.  With a busy performing 
schedule this year at venues around the nation, Trout Fishing in America is 
an especially good catch live in concert.  For a current schedule or
