Rusty Truck is a happy accident. The project came together in 1998 when celebrity photographer Mark Seliger gave songwriting a try just for the sake of doing so. With his countless connections in entertainment, Seliger was encouraged by Jakob Dylan, Sheryl Crow, and the like to make the music thing real. Seliger, drummer Joey Peters (Grant Lee Buffalo), guitarist Michael Duff (Chalk FarM), lap steel player Andy Gibson (Hank Williams III), bassist Sheldon Gomberg, guitarist Ben Peeler, and vocalist Kristin Mooney solidified things with a deal with Coda Terra in 2001. The band's debut album, Broken Promises, which included appearances from Lenny Kravitz, Gillian Welch, and other rock & roll favorites, was issued in fall 2003. Luck's Changing Lanes followed in 2008.
