Hard Truckers™ is the organization of sound specialists whose varied experience stems from the roots of the San Francisco Bay Area rock scene. We designed and built the Grateful Dead’s Wall of Sound and toured the United States with our semi-trucks packed with our speakers.

The Hard Truckers embodied the glorious sound and legendary performing history of the Grateful Dead. We are proud to announce a reborn Hard Truckers Company. The new Hard Truckers Company is formed by founding members of the Grateful Dead Crew; Steve Parish and Joe Winslow. The original co-founders are joined by their Organization of Sound Specialists; and a talented crew of woodworkers, engineers, artists and craftsmen.

Using new materials of the highest sound quality and new ideas the Hard Truckers are breaking new paths in sound and stage performance. With deep roots in the sound legacy of the Wall of Sound; the Hard Truckers pay tribute, in performance and craftsmanship, to this legendary performing history.
