Dumptruck

Dumptruck formed in Boston MA in the mid-80's. Their sound blends jangle pop, country, and post-punk, often drawing comparisons to bands like R.E.M. and Television. They released three critically acclaimed LP's but were then sidelined by a three year lawsuit with their former label. In the early 1990s, founding member Seth Tiven moved to Austin TX, where he continued to record and release four more Dumptruck albums, a greatest hits compilation, and a solo record. Dumptruck relocated to Albuquerque NM in 2024 and remains active, playing and producing new music.
