History
Houndmouth became a band in the summer of 2011. After playing locally in Louisville and Indiana, they performed at the SXSW music festival in March 2012 to promote their homemade self-titled EP. Geoff Travis, the head of Rough Trade was in the audience and offered a contract shortly after. In 2012, the band was named "Band Of The Week" by The Guardian.
From the Hills Below the City (2013)
In 2013 Houndmouth's debut album, From the Hills Below the City, was released by Rough Trade. This led to performances on Letterman, Conan, World Cafe, and several major festivals (ACL, Americana Music Festival, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Newport Folk Festival). SPIN and Esquire.com named Houndmouth a "must-see" band at Lollapalooza, and Garden & Gun said, "You'd be hard pressed to find a more effortless, well-crafted mix of roots and rock this year than the debut album from this Louisville quartet."
Little Neon Limelight (2015)
The band's second LP, Little Neon Limelight, was released on March 17, 2015. It includes the single "Sedona". The band performed "Sedona" on the Late Show with David Letterman on March 31, 2015, while a live performance of "Sedona" at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles was featured on Last Call with Carson Daly on November 18 and 27, 2015.
Katie Toupin departure (2016)
On April 8, 2016, the band announced that Katie Toupin left the band to pursue her own musical endeavors. The keyboard and Toupin's harmony parts have been performed by Caleb Hickman following Toupin's departure. Graeme Gardiner and Drew Miller subsequently joined the band on dual saxophones.
