Biography

Rock Truck, built in 2005 , from the beginning was a true bar-band. The original line up of Richard Leblanc, Eric "the red", Andy Middaugh, Jimmy Laukka, and Sean Wood gathered at the local drinking hole known as The Apollo; Richard and Eric were bouncers and Andy, Jimmy, and Sean were regulars at the Apollo.

Rock Truck later went on to play War On The Shore 4, shortly after Richard left to pursue work and music in London. Rock Truck continued to ride on as a 4-piece.

The first EP - Drunk, super Drunk was recorded in Dr. Destructo's Lair and released at the Speedway Detectives 10th Anniversary Show during the summer of 2006. In late 2006 Rock Truck installed local metal legend Mike "gearhead" Tkaczyk.

Currently, Rock Truck is working on the upcoming album currently titled - Booze Your Illusion Vol. 1 & 2. And playing shows in Thunder Bay providing opening support for bands travelling through town such as Priestess, Danko Jones, High Five Drive, Papa Roach, Maximum RnR and the UK Subs.
