About Trucker
Formed in 1995, Trucker is a six-piece rock band based in Lawrence, Kansas. Trucker’s style and approach reaches through all the genres of rock and roll and nothing about them is cookie cutter. From Alternative to Blues, their music follows their passion for focusing on the craftsmanship of each song. Every member of Trucker is educated, seasoned and accomplished in his own right. Together, they are filling a place in the rock and roll spectrum that has been vacant for too many years.
