Alpenglow, released on October 28, 2022, finds Trampled by Turtles, the bluegrass-schooled folk band out of Duluth, Minnesota, doing what they've done since 2004: taking string-band instruments and playing them with the urgency of a rock group. Dave Simonett sings and plays guitar, Erik Berry picks mandolin, Dave Carroll plays banjo and Tim Saxhaug holds down the bass, with Ryan Young completing the lineup.
"It's So Hard To Hold On" is the one that stuck on the countdowns, an aching song that shows how tender this band can be for all the speed in their name. It came from a group with serious form on the bluegrass charts, where three of their albums have gone to No. 1.
