There ain't nothing nice about Truckstop Honeymoon. They play banjos and wash tubs. They sing hell-bent songs about Jesus and adultery. They sing from their stomachs.

Katie Euliss learned guitar, piano and bucket bass in the streets of New Orleans. She scammed enough money from tourists to buy Lucky Strikes and smoked oysters for six years.

Then she met Mike West. Part entertainer, part snake oil salesman, Mike lived by pickin' banjo and sellings cds that he claimed were a curative for hangovers and small mindedness.

Together they began a perpetual tour of North America and Europe. They spent their wedding night in the Tiger Truck Stop. Somewhere between Lafayette and the Atchafalya Samp, Truckstop Honeymoon was born.

Truckstop Honeymoon plays break-neck breakdowns or waltzs. Their music is like a Dodge with a burnt out clutch: it has two speeds and no reverse.
