Country music and Trucking have always went hand-in-hand. Ask Nicole Witt. The country music icon George Strait has recorded one of Nicole's truck driving music songs. The song is called "Brothers Of The Highway", and is on George Strait's latest album. Nicole's Dad worked for Roadway Express for 32 years, and the trucking lifestyle has always fascinated her. She always thought that driving had the same freedom as a songwriter or musician. Nicole, along with two other songwriter friends came up with this modern day trucking song "Brothers Of The Highway". She has hit the big time, because everything George Strait breaths on becomes a hit song. To check out more of Nicole Witt's music, check out http://www.nicolewitt.com/
On their website, they describe "The Road Hammers" as a big Ol' 18 wheeler barreling down across the border. Their self-titled debut album produced 4 top 10 hits. If you make your living on or near the highway, the "Road Hammers" are a band for you. This band mixes contemporary and trucking classic songs with their own modern day flavor. Trucking songs have always been a country music constant and country music and trucking go hand-in-hand. The "Road Hammers" dropped their new album "Blood Sweat And Steel" on June 24th, and I highly recommend it to get you up the road a piece. On the "Road Hammers" website, you can buy their new album for $11.99, which is probably cheaper than the big music box stores.
Hey Road hammers and George, I have a few trucking country songs lyrics that I have written in my archives. Where's the love, man?
