Buffalo Traffic Jam is a folk band born in the heart of Bozeman, Montana, where its members, Frankie Cassidy and Nathan Ross, first crossed paths as students at Montana State University. United by a love for storytelling and the raw beauty of acoustic sound, they began crafting music that evokes wide-open landscapes and the emotions that live quietly beneath the surface of everyday life. The result was a self-titled debut ep followed by singles “Rescue Me” and “Forgot Your Roots;” the latter of which saw the band gain their first bit of online momentum and led to the signing of their very first record deal with Arista Records.
