Hotel River formed in 1999 as the Unknowns and kept the name until 2002 when there was some label interest in the band. The Unknowns became Hotel River and continued to tour and showcase for major labels.
Two LPs were recorded; one in 2000 at Whole Track Records and one in 2002 at McHugh's Distillery.
Hotel River was picked up by a management firm in 2003 and was sent to Studio City Sound to record a radio-friendly EP to grab major label interest. This recording would be the last. Hotel River collapsed shortly after and never revived itself.
Lead Singer/Songwriter, Chris Watson went on to start his current band, Love Lies Sleeping while his brother and lead guitarist Scott formed a band of his own; Pollen. Brothers Charlie and Chris Wadhams turned their side-project, the Breaks, into a full time band and renamed it Rex Aquarium.
