Uncle Hodge

About Me

Hello it’s me, Rob Flewell. Uncle Hodge started out as my wacky electric solo act. The Hodge part is named after a few things..my friend’s dog (Hodge), an early 70’s, canadian kid’s show I used to watch called "Hodge Podge Lodge", and also the music I play is a bit of a "hodge podge". Hope that helps...I go by both alias’ in the great city of Chapel Hill, NC. Still working on these demos so forgive the roughness of the tunes selected for this site.
