Trapper Schoepp – “Bumper Cars” [Video]

| |

Milwaukee-based singer-songwriter Trapper Schoepp will be releasing a six-song concept EP on June 2nd via Xtra Mile Recordings. The EP is centered around a 125-year-old wooden rollercoaster named The Zippin Pippin, which is located in Green Bay, WI on the shores of Lake Michigan.

Schoepp celebrates the Pippin and the other classic rides with these six songs that take the listener on six different adventures. Schoepp sings in the first single “Bumper Cars,” where pop culture rivalries such as Jerry Seinfeld and Newman and the Jedi and Sith collide on the ride. Check out the music video for “Bumper Cars.”

Schoepp – who has already crisscrossed the country sharing stages with The Wallflowers, The Jayhawks and Old 97’s – will be back on the road throughout 2017 in support of Bay Beach Amusement Park, starting with a three-week run throughout the U.S. supporting Ha Ha Tonka.
