Trailer Choir
High-octane country pop with a comedic edge. Anthemic, beer-soaked songs designed for tailgates, dive bars, and rowdy backyard parties.
High-octane country pop with a comedic edge. Anthemic, beer-soaked songs designed for tailgates, dive bars, and rowdy backyard parties.
Trailer Choir sounds like the exact moment a quiet backyard gathering turns into a full-blown party. Their music is built on a foundation of crunchy electric guitars, steady percussion, and big, singable choruses that feel instantly familiar. It is unapologetically loud and bright, capturing the high-energy spirit of 2000s-era country radio with a heavy dose of humor.
What sets them apart is their commitment to the 'good time' persona. While many country acts aim for stoic grit, Trailer Choir leans into the absurd and the celebratory. The interplay between the deep, charismatic male vocals and the soaring female harmonies creates a rich, textured sound that balances rowdy energy with genuine musicality. Their songs often feel like inside jokes shared with the listener.
Start with 'Rockin' the Beer Gut' to get a sense of their playful identity, then move to 'Off the Hillbilly Hook' for their signature high-energy production. It is music for anyone who doesn't take themselves too seriously and wants a soundtrack that matches the energy of a Friday night.
Trailer Choir was an American country music group composed of vocalists Marc "Butter" Fortney, Crystal Hoyt, and Vincent "Big Vinny" Hickerson. The trio was signed to Show Dog Nashville, a label owned by Toby Keith, in 2007. After recording the song "Off the Hillbilly Hook" for the soundtrack to Keith's film Beer for My Horses, Trailer Choir charted the singles "What Would You Say", "Rockin' the Beer Gut" and "Rollin' Through the Sunshine" on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. These singles were followed by an extended play called Off the Hillbilly Hook and an album called Tailgate. Hoyt departed the group in February 2011. The remaining members took a small hiatus in 2012, but started touring again in 2013 before ending their career again in 2016.
