Biography
Lemhouse got his professional start in music in Memphis, Tennessee playing in blues, rockabilly, and American roots bands, and he released two solo albums on the Yellow Dog Records label. His debut album, Big Lonesome Radio was nominated for two Blues Music Awards for "Best New Artist" and "Acoustic Album of The Year." His song "Edwin's Lament" was used in the Oscar-winning film, Hustle and Flow. The follow-up album, The Great American Yard Sale, was more eclectic in themes than the first, with songs covering subjects from David Bowie to astronauts.
In 2007, Lemhouse produced the album Bluefinger for Alternative Rock musician Black Francis (AKA Frank Black) of The Pixies. Upon the album's release in 2007, the song "Threshold Apprehension", which Lemhouse also provided backing vocals to, was picked by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the Best 100 Songs of the year.
In the fall of 2007, Lemhouse entered school to pursue a degree in visual communications (graphic design). Upon finishing school he started Lemhouse Design. Among the clients he has worked with, his one-time musical collaborator, Black Francis is one as well. Since 2007, Lemhouse has designed the albums 7fngrs, Nonstoperotik, the interactive media projects "Live at the Hotel Utah" and "Live in Nijmegen". The most recent being the 60 page box set/book, The Golem.
