V II Declassified -- Item 2: Kevin and His Band

Kevin Holgram, born near Hattiesburg, Mississippi on August 6th, 1920, was a late-blooming, up and coming Piano player in the New Orleans Jazz scene of the late 1930s. His first instrument, a glockenspiel bestowed upon him at age 8, was purchased by his Father, a local farmer, from a small pawn shop located between his hometown and New Orleans; years ago it had been pawned by a member of the US Marching Band immediately following The Great War.

V II - D.E.W. (Assaut Sonique)

In a lot of ways, this song could be considered the first Hosey song. It's roots were planted a little more than 10 years ago when Hughes and I were still in high school.

Archive Post: News of Our Demise Has Been Greatly Exaggerated

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything beyond a simple flyer for an upcoming show. Rest assured, that Hosey is still alive and well, and majorly "kickin' it".

Archive Post: So... It Has Been a Minute

Whew! It's been a while since we posted any news for the handful of you that follow our music. Sorry, I guess that's my fault. What's happened since we put out 1994? All kinds of fun stuff. The album has been downloaded over 300 times, last I checked, and that was a month ago. It's been streamed from this blog approaching 1000 times (!). It's been listened to or downloaded by humans in over 21 different countries(!): USA, UK, Germany, Canada, Philippines, Australia, Sweden, Taiwan, India, Poland, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Morocco, France, Switzerland, Italy, Argentina, Finland, Norway, South Korea, and Japan.

1994 - I Got a Lot of Anger

<a href="http://hosey.bandcamp.com/track/i-got-a-lot-of-anger">I Got a Lot of Anger by Hosey</a>

The album closer. This piece marked a change in our music writing process. It was the first song completely conceived after both Hughes and I had moved to New York City, and the first time our Sampler (the SP-303 at the time) was used as a key part in the songwriting process.
