WHAT YOU'VE BEEN MISSING!!! Shows that you haven't gone to for Houston, that were recorded!!!
After forming in 1999, houston (Rock band/Not the rapper) decided the only true home is on the long twisted road of rock. They tour consistently throughout the midwest, eastern, southern and western waysides, and have released three full length albums: "overhead", "head like a road map", "live on fish island" (an album of outtakes and b-sides), and they're latest album, "bottom of the curve". houston has also released 3 EPs, including a split 7" (superfi records) in the UK.
Jeff halland (guitar/vox) and lane soderberg (bass/vox) spent much of their formative years in the far northern woodlands of duluth, mn before moving to Minneapolis in the early 90's. Early in their career, jeff and lane devoted themselves to success in another band before eventually going separate ways and then reuniting a year later with houston ideas brewing. ian prince (drums) broke free from the confines of michigan's upper peninsula to escape a life in the militia. Ian elects to not reveal the exact date of his arrival to minneapolis, but shortly after he was introduced by a mutual friend to jeff and lane and the trio was complete.
As their "onesimpleband.com" website address suggests, houston modestly claims to be just that, but the complexity extends far beyond the surface and will escape the cursory listen; Varied comparisons abound, making it difficult to see or hear the simplicity. houston's sound and incredible live performance have attracted the attention of bands like : House of Large Sizes, Shiner, and Local H, all of whom have taken houston on tour throughout different parts of the country.
Sad to say, Houston R.I.P. 1999-2004. BEFORE YOU SEND AN EMAIL/SPAM, NOTE: THIS BAND IS DONE, OVER AND OUT!!! HENCE THE REST IN PIECE!!!

Charles Dickens began pasting labels on blaking pots. The tragedy of his first love penetrated the depths of his soul, and converted him into one of the world's truly great authors. That tragedy produced, first, David Copperfield, then a succession of other works that made this a richer and better world for all who read his books. Dissappointment over love affairs, generally has the effect of driving men to drink, and women to ruin; and this because most people never never learn the art of transmuting their strongest emotions into dreams of a constructive nature.
