Gary Gentry is a trucker with a country music soul. Driving for McElroy Truck Lines since 1989, he’s also the songwriter behind hits for legends like George Jones, Johnny Cash, David Allan Coe, and Tim McGraw. With seven country music awards, two gold records, and one platinum, his biggest hit, The Ride, is a classic.

Despite his success, Gary never left the road. “I am a trucker, and I say it with pride. The great thing about trucking is the freedom you don’t get anywhere else.” That love for the highway inspired his own album, packed with trucker anthems like Coffee Jim, Caller, and Mother Trucker.

If you love the sounds of Red Sovine, Jerry Reed, or Hank Williams Sr., Gary Gentry’s music belongs in your collection.
