About Me

"Truckadero" is a Colorado based country-folk-blues-jam string combo actively seeking gigs in the local region. Ready to step up and pick up the tempo at your private party or public venue. The Truckaderos' core membership consists of:

Kyle: Truckadero Kyle has been playing and singing for 30+ years. Sometimes professionally but mostly for fun and friendship. Most inspiring gig: "once played for enchiladas...best enchiladas I ever had!" Kyle is the "lyrics guy". If he forgets the song...bass solo!.

Eugene : Truckadero Eugene has been playing professionally, on and off, for many a year now. Our resident "guitar god" Eugene is a one-time-founding-member of the touring group "Uncle John's Band", a staple act in the S. Illinois/Chicago land music scene in the early to late 80's. "Uncle John's Band" still endures, and though Eugene has moved on to pursue other artistic interests, he still bends the strings like a wizard when ever the chance comes around.

Many other friends hold honorary "Truckadero" status and join us from time to time in our musical explorations and exploits. Watch for more information on them to be posted as we truck along.
