The Chuggaluggers is a 4-piece American blues rock band from Des Moines formed in 2023. It is a collection of high-energy, seasoned musicians who met at local jams and who couldn’t get enough of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Doors, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Grand Funk Railroad, and ZZ Top.

“Music illuminates even the darkest moments. Just when you need it the most, a song lets in a sliver of light.” Now hailed as a premier party band by audiences, the Chuggaluggers light up the stage playing a variety of upbeat songs, including some originals written by frontman Doug Trammell. Their unique brand of entertainment fuses hard-hitting grooves and punchy horn lines with witty stage banter that will make you want to dance all night.
