   About Gumption Trap
Gumption Trap as defined by Robert Pirsig in the book 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" as during "the process of fixing the machine things always come up, low quality things, from a dusted knuckle to an accidentally ruined 'irreplaceable' assembly. These drain off gumption, destroy enthusiasm and leave you so discouraged you want to forget the whole business." Gumption Trap is also a folk/rock outfit out of Minneapolis that combines well-crafted lyrics with catchy guitar jams that bubble over with positive energy. Mixing originals, with covers and revved up traditional tunes the band made up of Owen Herman, Ryan Shortridge, and Brandon Henry is one of the most captivating bands in the Twin Cities.
