A Rock Legacy:
Since their formation in 1997, Trapt has left an indelible mark on the rock music scene. With six studio albums, one live album, one compilation album, three EPs, and thirteen hit singles to their name, Trapt has solidified their position as rock legends. Their seventh studio album, “DNA,” released in May 2016, only added to their already impressive discography.
Chart-Toppers and Platinum Success:
Trapt’s journey in the music industry has been nothing short of remarkable. The band has enjoyed numerous top 20 hits, including three number one hits, a number three spot on the top 40, and a top 15 ranking on Billboard’s Hot 100. Their achievements also include a platinum album and numerous song placements in movies and video games. Trapt’s music has resonated with fans around the world, resulting in 2.5 million records sold globally.
The Roots of Trapt:
Trapt’s story began with two school friends, Chris Brown and Peter Charell, who shared a deep love for the heavy rock sound of bands like Korn, Soundgarden, and Metallica during the mid-’90s. Their shared passion for music led them to the idea of forming a band, and casual gigs in school only fueled their ambition. With the addition of guitarist Simon Ormandy in 1997, Trapt’s lineup was complete.
Early Gigs and Demo Recordings:
The trio wasted no time in recording their own demo and started performing at venues in and around southern California. Within a year, they were sharing the stage with renowned acts like Papa Roach, Dredg, and Spike 1000. Trapt’s talent and dedication to their craft were evident, but they still had high school graduation to consider.
The Long Road to Success:
Despite their growing success, Trapt faced challenges along the way. Their second album, “Amalgamation,” was self-released in 1998, and the band was still juggling college studies with their music careers. A turning point came in late 2000 when Trapt’s stellar performance at the Troubadour caught the attention of Immortal Records. Talks of a record deal were underway, but the band faced a setback when Immortal dropped them after just eight weeks.
Trapt’s journey from school friends with a shared passion for rock music to a globally recognized rock band is a testament to their talent and determination. The chance to witness their iconic sound and energetic performance live at Crossties in downtown Texarkana is a rare treat for fans of 90s rock. So, secure your tickets, and get ready to rock out with Trapt on November 16 – it’s a night of nostalgia you won’t soon forget.
