Check out Big Truck's summery new single Rebounder, which finds Laurie Vincent celebrate everyday joy and poke fun at the culture of self-help.
Big Truck have shared a quirky new single Rebounder, which celebrates life’s tiny joys while also skewering questionable advice peddled on social media.
Chances are, this is the only song you’ll hear today that mentions stimulating the lymphatic system, which is supposedly what using a rebounder - or a small trampoline - is for. There’s also an anecdote in the song about dog poo ruining what had otherwise been a lovely day. If there’s a lesson to be taken from it, it’s twofold: appreciate the small things, and don’t forget the poo bags.
“There’s an overarching theme across the record of being shouted at about self-help on social media. Even if you walk through an airport, you see that all of the top books being sold are about self-help and are usually full of bullshit,” says vocalist Laurie Vincent. “Rebounder is my tongue-in-cheek take on that. And it’s a true story: we were having a really amazing day out, then I picked my kid, and there was dogshit all over my hands.”

Rebounder will appear on Big Truck’s upcoming debut album Midday At The Middleway, which also features the singles Central Reservation Blues and Collided.
