The official youtube channel for UK band The Traps.
From lock-up to lock down. From Birmingham to New York City. From tiny toilet venues to vast fortress festivals. Over ten years in the making. We crack open the vault, dusted off the lost tapes and present our prequel album, ‘Echoes’.
‘Echoes’, was forged deep under the industrial red brick train arches of Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. Night after night, fuelled by a mission to make the best songs we possibly could, we would hole up and piece together these eleven songs and more.
As creative people we’ve always lived by the belief that we’re only as good as our next idea and we feel we’ve still got plenty of great music to make. So while ‘Echoes’, our third album and follow up to 2016’s ‘Wild Escape’, looks back and brings us full circle to our first album ‘Calypso’, we are going to be loading the flux capacitor, jumping back to the linear timeline and bringing you another new album very soon. We can’t wait.
