Sam Lister and Ryan Farlow will serve as the band&#8217;s agents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The band grew up in a town of 600 people in rural Alberta, graduating in a class of nine, before relocating to Montr\u00e9al at seventeen. Their debut album <em>Violence<\/em> (2024, Mothland) earned widespread critical acclaim and took them to SXSW, Roskilde, Roadburn, and Outbreak Festival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, with the announcement of their second full-length <em>The weathervane is my body<\/em> (June 26, The Flenser \/ Mothland), the band is stepping up their touring infrastructure to match the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The album&#8217;s lead single &#8220;New Jesus,&#8221; a raw, politically-pointed track about post-truth culture and the erosion of democratic accountability, is out now with a video directed by Kirill Sommer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Management for Truck Violence stays in place with Culture Wave, the L.A.-based Red Light Management subsidiary founded in 2025 by Jason Mageau and Andrew Jarrin after their departure from <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/company\/roc-nation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Roc Nation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ROAM, formed from the September 2025 merger of Arrival Artists and ATC Live, has been actively expanding its roster of forward-thinking independent acts, recently adding <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/news\/niis-signs-with-roam-for-representation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Niis<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/news\/the-small-fortunes-signs-with-roam-for-representation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Small Fortunes<\/a>. The agency now represents over 800 artists across six global offices, including <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/celebrity\/nick-cave\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nick Cave<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/celebrity\/big-thief\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Big Thief<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/celebrity\/fontaines-d-c\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fontaines D.C<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This signing is a clear signal that Truck Violence are building serious touring infrastructure right as the stakes get higher. They&#8217;re not a band that blew up overnight, they earned it show by show, festival by festival, with a cult following that&#8217;s growing album to album. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Landing at ROAM, arguably the most important independent booking agency in the world right now, just ahead of a major album cycle is a smart move. ROAM gives them the global reach to turn European festival momentum into something sustainable on both sides of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pairing with Sam Lister and Ryan Farlow is also notable; both agents are based in the EU, which lines up neatly with the band&#8217;s upcoming European run. This isn&#8217;t just about filling venues. It&#8217;s about building a long-term career with the right infrastructure behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ROAM has been on a signing spree with forward-thinking independent acts. Is this the beginning of a dominant position in the post-hardcore\/indie rock space? Are politically outspoken rock bands becoming more important again in 2026\u2019s touring landscape? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Truck Violence, the Montr\u00e9al hardcore\/folk band fronted by singer-poet Karsyn Henderson and guitarist-banjoist Paul Lecours, has signed with global booking agency ROAM for worldwide touring representation.
