Live alternative, blues, rock, folk, Celtic, funk, reggae progressive pop from Iowa City, IA!- Formed late 2000 Group members Nikki Lunden--lead vocals, guitar, Natalie Brown--violin 'git-fiddle', mandolin, Ryan Casteel-bass guitar, Seth Koenig--drums, congas.
We are an upbeat band, headed by 2 females and backed by 2 males. Our lead instrument is a violin and mandolin, which is still unexpected these days in rock, blues, and pop music. Our vocalist has a strong, spunky, yet sometimes pretty and sassy voice. Recently reunited after parting separate ways for close the four years, we are back with some new tunes and the same old school Trollies vibe. Thanks to everyone who came down to our reunion show on October 5th at the Yacht Club; it was truley magical.
March 2007 - We'd like to welcome Mr. Ryan Casteel as our new bassist! We are all looking forward to working with Ryan as a musical collegue, and developing a strong, lasting relationship with such a wonderful guy. We'll have more info about him coming soon, as I'm bit by bit updating our site!
May 2001 Press review: "Local newcomers The Trollies convey a lilting, folk-rock approach on their debut disc, 'Fountain Pennies' but color all that with a sassy, blues-rock edge onstage. Spunky vocalist/guitarist Nikki Lunden sings tough but pretty; Natalie Brown is a wonder on violin and mandolin, and the rhythm section of bassist Adam Grosso and drummer Seth Koenig anchors the passionate, original material. A band to watch." ---Jim Musser, Iowa City Press-Citizen

I’m not sure what this application is all about outside of what they calmed, or how it is supposed to be saving rain forests, but it lets me give people flowers and that seems fun!! :-D
