Influences
Two Hoots and a Holler is influenced by everyone from Buddy Holly and Johnny Cash to The Cramps and The Clash to the swampy, Cajun music Broussard heard growing up. While the band can play a mean classic country tune, there’s no denying the effect rock ‘n’ roll has had on them, which led Broussard to once remark, “I’m just a punk rocker in cowboy clothes.”
If the band's name sounds familiar, it should. For more than 20 years, Rick Broussard and company have been hammering out their unique blend of country meets roots rock in every honky-tonk, dance hall and bar from Texas to California to Oslo.
Founded in the early '80s by Broussard (lead vocals, guitar, head songwriter), Two Hoots and a Holler is now rounded out by Matt Brooks (guitar, vocals); Brendon Bigelow (bass, vocals), and Scott French (drums, percussion). Together they are making Two Hoots and a Holler one of the best-known bands in Austin, Texas, packing the places they play and leaving their fans fighting for dance floor space. The band has won numerous Austin Music Awards for Best Roots Rock Band and has been often nominated for the Austin Music Awards Hall of Fame!
