Trucker's Son - by Starflyer 59



Classified under shoegaze according to some sites.  Should be 'Awesome shoegaze'. (yeah, I know - silly/stupid... lol).
SF59 is from out of Riverside, CA, & is Jason Martin (Bon Voyage, Neon Horse, & The Brothers Martin) Steven Dail (Project 86, Crash Rickshaw) & Trey Many (Velour 100, His Name is Alive).  They've released a dozen LP's since the formation in 1993, 8 EP's in between, & more bits & pieces here & there (including live recordings, 7" vinyls, etc.).  Aside from playing & writing music, he also co-owns & trucks for his late father's company.  This song comes off their latest album "The Changing of the Guard", released August 10th, 2010.

On a separate note, you can download their song "Wake Up Early" for free from their Purevolume site:

& on another separate note: most of the bands listed in brackets that the members are part of are either broken up or they are ex-members (such is the case with Project 86); but Bon Voyage is still going.
