Royal Trux

Royal Trux is an American alternative rock band active from 1987 to 2001, and which reunited in 2015. It was founded by Neil Hagerty (vocals, guitar) and Jennifer Herrema (vocals). While still a teenager, Hagerty joined Washington D.C. garage punk band Pussy Galore, led by Jon Spencer, and subsequently relocated to New York. During his time in there, Hagerty convinced his bandmates to release a cassette-only remake of the entire Rolling Stones album Exile on Main Street. While he gained underground notoriety for his work with Pussy Galore, Hagerty reportedly viewed it as a job and intended to pursue his own artistic vision with his girlfriend, Jennifer Herrema, under the name Royal Trux.

==Links to Peel==
Peel seemed to discover the band in 1990 when he played a track from their debut single. He continued his interest in the band until the late 90's and the group did two sessions for his programmes in 1993. 
In an interview with Neil Hagerty by Blake Brunner in 2000, he was asked whether his band released a Peel Session EP, in which, Hagerty replied that it was a bootleg.
