About Trapper Schoepp:

In 2019, Milwaukee's Trapper Schoepp hit a songwriters jackpot: a co-write with Bob Dylan. And the circumstances were wildly serendipitous. On the day Dylan entered Columbia Studios in 1961 to begin recording his first studio album, he wrote a song about Wisconsin. The lyric sheet sat unseen with a former roommate, and was later unearthed and put up for auction at $30,000. Schoepp saw the story and seized the opportunity to set music to words. After Schoepp's effort, he was granted Dylan's approval to jointly publish the song. This 57-year-collaboration--On, Wisconsin--led to features in Rolling Stone and Billboard, an album called Primetime Illusion produced by Wilco's Patrick Sansone, and nearly a hundred international tour dates.

Schoepp and his brother weathered the early stages of lockdown by working on his 2021 album release, May Day, and doing live streams for socially conscious organizations like Guitars 4 Vets, Harmony 4 Hope and RAINN. Having spent the last half decade getting home just in time to leave again, playing countless dates, and sharing stages with such like-minded Americana mainstays as The Wallflowers, The Jayhawks, Frank Turner, and Old 97s.

In May 2022, Schoepp headed south to Johnny Cash's historic "Cash Cabin" with a trunk full of new songs steeped in traditional American and Irish folk music. Joseph Cash filmed Trapper and his brother, Tanner, exploring these storied grounds, as well as recording with our producers John Jackson (The Jayhawks) + Patrick Sansone (Wilco). The full album 'Siren Songs' is out April 21 via Grand Phony. "Cliffs of Dover" is the first of these songs to be released as a single, and once again, it's time for Trapper Schoepp to hit the road and take his new album out on tour.
