Meet the Truckers...
Lisa Frary Guerard- Lead vocals and soul- Lisa hails from Windsor, Connecticut.  She's has been singing since she was a little girl, first with the school chorus then the church choir. Lisa is the former lead singer for The Adventures and Evolution.  In addition to being the lead vocalist in Mack Truck Mary, Lisa continues working as a soloist at church. She is outgoing and the proud mother of four grown children!  Aside from singing, she loves the beach, traveling with her husband Steve and reading a good book!

Michael Bushnell- Drums, background vocals and chill- Mike has been playing drums for a long time.  He was most recently the drummer for the Davis Wheatley Blues Band as well as the earliest incarnations of Mack Truck Mary.  In addition to drums, Mike has developed a closet passion for guitar which he actually comes out from behind the set to play during several songs. When he's not playing music, Mike is building houses (or fixing up his own) and enjoying his son and two young daughters!
 
Brian Kelleher-Bass and Vocals,  some guitar and voice of reason- Brian started playing  at the age of 10 . He got his first taste of band life when his teacher dropped him off at his girl friend's house. She had a younger brother that played drums and told him "good luck, I'll be back in about three hours." The rest, as they say, is history.  Brian began playing gigs when he was 13. He spent  10 years immersed in music, and performed in rock and acoustic bands, as well as a jazz/swing band. All this was put on hold for the next twenty years to do his part with his wife  raising their three daughters. He decided to dust off the gear in 2002 and found it was even better the second time around! Brian became a Trucker in 2009 when Al asked him to fill in on a gig for the former bass player... and Brian never left.
Al Dziedzic- Keyboards, Saxaphone, background vocals and motivation- Al Dziedzic hails from Barrington, R.I. and has spent many years performing as a saxophonist with Connecticut blues bands, Blue Moose, Blue Phoenix, the jazz ensemble, The Al-D Quartet, as well as the Motown band, Splendid Blend.  Al was a musical cast member (saxophone and keyboards) for over 60 shows in the hit musical "The Buddy Holly Story" at the Majestic Theater in Springfield, MA.  While blues music has always been his passion, Al has also spent time performing in other generes like The Connecticut Opera Guild and directing both secular and religious choral groups.  Aside from MTM, Al plays with Great Garage Band, Miss Marcey , Desiree Bassett and occassionally other area favorites! Al presently lives in Ashford, CT.    
 
Scott Goldsmith- Guitar,  vocals and hyperactivity
Scott has been a Trucker since 2001 after a 10 year hiatus from playing in bands.  Previous bands include A New Machine, Second Line and Midnite Fury (back in the 80's) in which he wore make up and spandex.  Scott made it to the District Finals in the 2004 national Guitarmageddon Guitar competition.  Guitar influences include David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Alex Lifeson, Randy Rhodes, John Petrucci, Steve Howe and other great musicians.  In his real life, Scott is a husband and father of three daughters.  He works as a school psychologist and private therapist to support his music addictions.  Other interests include writing, outdoor adventures and travel.
