Today, Bozeman’s best, indie folk band Buffalo Traffic Jam announce their debut headline Take Me Home Tour kicking off in Minneapolis on February 24th before making their way across the US and Canada! The tour announce follows support runs for Dylan Gossett, Bayker Blankenship, Allen Stone, Jamey Johnson, Shane Smith & The Saints along with festival slots at Red West Festival and Under the Big Sky. It also follows last month’s release of their EP Take Me Home, which saw the duo cross 1.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify. Tickets for the Take Me Home Tour go on sale this Friday, November 21 at 10am local time.
Most recently, Lowkey Country chose Buffalo Traffic Jam as their October Artist On the Rise while Moose Radio deemed them “The Most Popular Montana Band You’ve Never Heard Of.” Their EP Take Me Home, is both heavy and hopeful, capturing the intense couple of years the pair have had juggling college, music-making, touring and general adulthood paired with a sound that hits like a storm tearing across rain-starved plains.
Fan favorite, “Fool’s Gold,” is a driving tune that finds Frankie in a bad way, chasing cheap relief amid rising cello and crashing guitar that now boasts more than 14 million views on TikTok and over 8 million streams! “Comfort in Misery,”a song about the ruts we fall into when we’re in need of some healing, landed on Spotify’s highly-coveted Fresh Folkplaylist and picked up praise from Melodic Mag, who hailed it, “A compelling combination of heartfelt lyrics and emotive folk.” They recently brought their stop-you-in-your-tracks sound to The Sticks Music’s Bonfire Sessions — watch “Fool’s Gold” here and “Comfort in Misery” here.
Before this season of songs, Buffalo Traffic Jam released a pair of 2025 singles — “Milestone” and “Strangers Now”— which followed their November breakthrough, “Forgot Your Roots,” a heart-wrenching mix of emotional rawness and cinematic grandeur. 2024 saw the release of their self-titled debut EP, a culmination of all that had been brewing since they came together as Montana State University students united by a love for storytelling, the beauty of acoustic sound, and the natural wonder surrounding them in Big Sky Country.
Of late, Buffalo Traffic Jam have been bringing their music to wider audiences both at their festival debuts at Under the Big Sky in Whitefish, MT and Salt Lake City’s Red West Festival, as well as support slots on a generation-hopping array of talent including the legendary Steve Earle, Alabama outlaw country artist Jamey Johnson, and Texas red dirt band Shane Smith & The Saints. Their current run with Dylan Gossett wraps up November 16 in Phoenix, AZ ahead of their set at Tortuga Music Festival in April. Catch the fellas on the road and stay tuned for Buffalo Traffic Jam’s next chapter — their story has just begun.
