Trucker is a rock band that was formed in 1995 and is based in Lawrence, Kansas. In 2000, Trucker was interviewed and performed on the nationally televised show Farmclub[1]; which was an hour long program created by Universal Music Group and broadcast during primetime on the USA Network. Trucker performed alongside Enrique Iglesias and the Bloodhoud Gang during the episode which aired April 24, 2000.
In 2010, Trucker won the first phase of the Sennheiser HearIAm music campaign[2] and received a prize package (valued at nearly $20,000) that included a performance slot at Montreal's Osheaga Festival[3]; with a record crowd of over 50,000.
