Haunted Melodies and Country Soaked
Americana Rock N' Roll
Stick a pin in a map somewhere between the California hills, Motor City and Nashville and there you'll find TrailerHawk blasting out haunted melodies atop of country soaked Americana rock n' roll.
TrailerHawk is: Gord Robert on drums, Don Binns on Bass Fiddle and The Fender Pre, Tom Hammel on Pedal Steel, Vocals and Guitars, Rod Bruno on Lead and Rhythm guitars, while the incomparable Carmen Bruno sings her tales of life, liquor and love on the run.
Half Up Front, their debut 2017 EP produced by Colin Linden (Lucinda Williams, T-Bone Burnett, Bob Dylan) premiered at #36 on the iTunes Canada Country chart and spawned the single "Car". The track picked up steam south of the border and began solid rotation on radio stations from deep in Texas to the United Kingdom.
Following that release the band has hit the ground running and hasn't looked back. They released a compilation of tracks in January 2020 named 12 Tracks and Road Maps.
2020's 12 Tracks and Roads marks the end of a chapter for the band and new beginning as well; the group recorded their most recent album at the legendary Hipposonic Studios with Dave "Rave" Ogilvie (Nine Inch Nails, Queen, David Bowie).
2021 - 2022 TrailerHawk releases 3 brand new singles ‘Let it Lie’, 'Tell Me What’, and ‘On and On’. Recorded at Hipposonic Studios with Dave "Rave" Ogilvie (Nine Inch Nails, Queen, David Bowie) Producing and Mixing.
