Big Rig was a short-lived punk band formed in the east San Francisco Bay Area in 1993.[2] The group was fronted by singer/songwriter Jesse Michaels after his previous band, Operation Ivy, broke up in 1989. Big Rig played only one show during their brief existence as a band.[3] Their sole, the EP Expansive Heart, was released in 1994 by Lookout Records and later reissued in 2020 by 1-2-3-4 Go! Records. Big Rig broke up in 1993, only a few months after they formed.[2]
