Jamie Lindsay celebrates the spirit of truck-loving girls with new single.
Jamie Lindsay, a rising star in NSW Central Coast country rock music, is set to make waves with his latest single, ‘My Girl’s Got A Truck,’ a heartwarming and empowering tribute to girls who love trucks.
Inspired by his sister, Rachel, and the countless girls who share her passion, Jamie’s new song challenges stereotypes and showcases the enduring love between women and their trucks. With ‘My Girl’s Got A Truck,’ Lindsay is turning the tables on the traditional truck song narrative, reminding us that girls are just as passionate about the open road and powerful machines.
In Lindsay’s own words, “This song’s been writing itself all my life”.
With two older sisters, Jamie’s sister, Rachel, has been a source of inspiration and pride.
“For as long as I can remember, she has loved everything with wheels,” he said.
“While I’ve always been into guitars and music, Rachel has always been into cars and machines and became a mechanic and an auto electrician,” he said.
Rachel also restores cars and owns an impressive collection of vehicles, including an F100, an F150, and a Mack truck she’s currently refurbishing, which are just a few of the elements that make her a symbol of the truck-loving girls Lindsay aims to celebrate.
Jamie’s song weaves in a fictional story about a young girl who inherits an F100 from her father, reinforcing the sentimental value trucks can hold.
“She inherits an F100 from her dad, a sentimental thing, but also my sister has always been this kind of girl I’m talking about – right into trucks, cars, and motorbikes,” he said.
The idea for ‘My Girl’s Got A Truck’ was born when Jamie Lindsay drew inspiration from Keith Urban and Jimmie Allen’s hit song, Boy Gets A Truck.
“When that song came out, in my situation, there are so many songs about boys and trucks. I thought, wouldn’t it be cool if there was a song about a girl with a truck? That gave me the incentive to write the song from the girl’s point of view.”
He even went the extra mile to ensure the song’s accuracy.
“When I was writing it, especially the last choruses, I actually rang my sister to ask about F100s and was cross-referencing everything about the truck with her. I wanted to make sure people didn’t go, ‘they didn’t have that,’ especially the diehard Ford fans.”
‘My Girl’s Got A Truck’ is more than just a song; it’s a message that resonates with anyone who dares to break stereotypes and follow their passions and also celebrates a daughter’s special bond with her dad.
“I hope other girls who are into trucks connect with it as well. I just wanted it to be a fun song.”
With its infectious beat and irresistible stomp-and-clap rhythm, this song is sure to become an anthem that gets everyone moving.
