One word... high-velocity-honky-tonk. That's the way Speedtrucker's lead singer Michael Cox describes the band's style.
Classifying the genre of music spit out by the heavy metal-looking band wearing cowboy hats is the much-dreaded question. "We just play what we play and hopefully people will dig it," says lead singer Michael Cox. "But whatever it is, we play the living hell out of it." Still clueless? "Picture David Lee Roth fronting Merle Haggard or Waylon Jennings," describes Cox.
Speedtrucker went on hiatus effective at the end of January 2006, but returned in August of that same year with a slightly different lineup.
