Ezra Idlet makes up one half of the musical duo Trout Fishing in America along with bass player Keith Grimwood. Born in San Antonio, Texas Ezra plays guitar and provides vocals for the band.

Ezra uses a Rick Turner Renaissance electric acoustic guitar on stage as well as a Renaissance baritone 12 string guitar both with Elixir strings. He is also well known for his use of effects pedals to create a much fuller sound than would be expected from a two person group. Using chorus and delay effects he can create the impression of a percussionist while, according to Idlet, "Letting certain strings ring can imply another rhythm guitar part."

[edit] Trivia

Idlet, who at 6'9" dwarfs the 5'5" Grimwood, was offered a college scholarship to play basketball but gave it up in order to pursue music.
