The Huntingtons
The Huntingtons debut album "Sweet Sixteen" was released in 1996 by Flying Tart Records. A few months later, their first attempt at recording Ramones covers, entitled "Rocket to Ramonia" saw limited release via the Burnt Toast Vinyl label. At this point the band added a second guitarist, Tom Rehbein (later in Small Towns Burn a Little Slower). After working with producer Mass Giorgini for the band's next album, "Fun and Games", Tom was replaced by Brad Ber. After the album's release in mid-1997, the band started touring and gained a cult following. Their big break came in 1998, when they signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released "High School Rock".
Tom House (musician)
House wrote hundreds of poems during the two decades before 1997. Of these, three had been included in "The Bicentennial Edition of the Tennessee Anthology of Poetry". From 1982 to 1988, he edited and published the journal "raw bone", which was known for publishing spare, brutal writing. House's first recording to be released was "The Hank Williams Memorial Myth", a spoken-word intro to the 1996 compilation album "Nashville: The Other Side Of The Alley". In 1997, he released his debut album, "The Neighborhood Is Changing", on Checkered Past Records. The album featured multiple members of Lambchop. As of 2012, he had released a total of 13 albums.
