Bobb Trimble (born August 4, 1958) is a cult psych-folk musician from Marlborough, Massachusettes. [ [http://www.bobbtrimble.com/ BobbTrimble.com] .]

Biography

He released two full-lengths, 1980's "Iron Curtain Innocence" and 1982's "Harvest of Dreams". After the latter's release, Trimble's ceased. Over the next two decades, he gained a cult following, which included Ariel Pink and Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore. His records, originally pressed in quantities of 500 or less, became collectors items, some selling for as much as $1,500.

During the early 1980s, he had two backing bands: The Kidds (the average age of the band members was 12-years-old) and The Crippled Dog Band (average age was 15-years-old)."The Guardian" article: " [http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2007/nov/02/popandrock.alexispetridis He's for real. Or should I say surreal?] "] "Suspicious parents" pulled the plug on both bands.AllMusic biography of [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:wifwxqualdhe~T1 Bobb Trimble] .]

Reissues

"Iron Curtain Innocence" and "Harvest of Dreams" were re-released in 2007 by the Secretly Canadian label, each with a handful of bonus tracks.
