Firetrucs
 
firetrucs are a 3-piece indie rock band from Minneapolis. The band was formed in late-2000 and has since toured the Midwest and California. firetrucs have shared the stage with Grant Hart (of Husker Du), Janis Figure, Houston, The Waking Hours, Light FM, Woolworthy, Zero to Nine, Snails, and other regional heroes.

The band’s first album, the “Space Loaf LP” was put out on Chicago’s Secret Fire Records in December 2001. The staggering “Hovercraft LP” was released in May, 2002 and features Veruca Salt’s Louise Post on guest vocals, as well as producers Jacques Wait (Beatifics, Mark Mallman, Semisonic) and Brent Sigmeth (They Might Be Giants, Kelley Deal). The ten-song album about girls, cars, and rock delves into familiar sonic territory, but shows a more dynamic, more mature, more impressive side of firetrucs.
