Guthrie Trapp

If comparing yourself to other people is holding you back, unfollow them. You have to take drastic measures to progress & succeed in whatever you’re doing. Get out there & make it happen. Do the work & meet the people. Get your foot in the door & squeeze the rest through!

A nice little TV moment with these cats the other day. The Reverend Billy F Gibbons and Mike Flanigin. Sharp dressed men with cheap sunglasses. I guess I lost mine along the way. The adventure continues…

Happy Birthday to the one and only, Billy F Gibbons! They broke the mold when they made this cat.

Come on out and hang with us tonight, Monday, Dec 16th at the world famous Ungerdog bar in beautiful East Nashville! We will be Telecasting from 8-10pm with Jordan Perlson on drums and cymbals and Tim Marks on the Fender 4 string electric bass guitar. The adventure continues!

Hey, friends! Let’s get inspired to improve our guitar skills together! It’s our BIGGEST sale of the year! This holiday season, SAVE 50% on any course from the ArtistWorks catalog. There’s never been a better time to start playing and save. Thanks for the support, everyone!

Me asking Jeff “what key are we in?” and him replying “any one you want”. We then proceed to explore some “Free Jazz” with the Jeff Coffin (Bela Fleck & The Flekctones, Dave Mathews Band) Quartet at the Frist Art Center. The adventure continues!

We wrapped up the brand new upcoming course with Brother Brett Papa! Please stay tuned for a timely release of this one. It’s always a pleasure working with Brett & he’s been a great friend for a long time now at this point. In short, this course is going to be awesome!

“You spend half your life tuning a mandolin and the other half playing it out of tune”. It’s definitely a pain in the ass in all aspects of the instrument..but worth it. What a tedious little thing it can be! Come out and support some cool shows happening this month in Nashville!

A little insight into some Robert Johnson delta blues chord voicings. Sometimes it’s fun to learn things the correct way & know you’re doing it right.The more note for note stuff you figure out on your own, the better your ear will get.I need to be doing much more of that myself!

Here’s a little insight to some rhythm patterns I used on “Transition Logo Blues” written by Uncle Larry & recorded on our IN STEREO record. What a fun song to play! Full video with much more on my YouTube channel. Don’t forget to subscribe while there!Thanks for all the support!

No charge for mistakes! Have some fun with it. It’s not about things being perfectly executed to me. There’s more than enough polished content out there if that’s what you’re after. To me, it’s all about the intent, the idea, the feel & hopefully transporting to another place.

Night 1 in Chicago is officially sold out! The good news is we have added a second night! Feb 8th tickets will go on sale Friday Dec 6th. We are bringing the entire crew for both nights! Tom Bukovac, Jedd Hughes, Nick Govrik, Jimmy Wallace, Tim Marks & Jordan Perlson!

The Trapps are in town & we’re about to shut it down for Turkey Day. This photo features some good clean fun here with the Trapp elders, Joe & Mary. I had no idea puzzles were so much fun. I’m hooked now. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. There’s a lot to be thankful for indeed!

This will be a great way to spend Thanksgiving Eve in Music City. Come out & join us for a hellacious night of music with my brother Dylan Altman & friends. This show will feature Jimmy Wallace, Alison Prestwood, Nick Buda & more. As always,thanks for having me on the short list!

NYC is a wrap! It’s always an amazing experience & most interesting adventure coming to the Big Apple every time. We brought a stellar group of close friends & players to play 3 sold out nights at the legendary Bitter End. This makes the 3rd time The GT Trio played here this year

It doesn’t get much better than this for us. We had a fun rehearsal to prepare for our three sold out nights in New York City at the Bitter End this week. Here’s a little clip of Tom’s awesome song, “Bad Cat Serenade”. We can’t wait to see y’all up there this week! Thanks always!
