Huron is a rock and roll band from Hamilton, Ontario. The four of us got together in early 2008 and as of this writing we have just completed the tracking for a full-length record produced by Ian Blurton. Sometimes the music is big southern-fried Sabbath riffin'. Sometimes we just sing songs that come from a Neil Young, Beatles and the Band-type of place. Sometimes the Floyd and the Dead get the better of us and it gets psychedelic. Often it's some combination of those.
Cam Malcolm (guitar, vocals) cut his teeth fronting Peterborough's Sweet Homewreckers - their record From the Letdown to the Comearound had critics singing praises in harmony and it spawned a video for the infectious cut "Wild America". Aaron Goldstein (guitar, vocals) is best known as one of Hamilton's most visible sidemen, providing accompaniment on pedal steel and guitar to some of Southern Ontario's finest singer/songwriters. Along with Adam Melnick (bass, vocals), he is a member of Dan Griffin's Regrets and has played steel on dozens of Southern Ontario records over the past few years. Adam, in the meantime, has also proven himself a worthy sideman on bass and keyboards, having played recently with Kilhuminzu and Terra Lightfoot. And if that wasn't enough, Pete Hall (drums, vocals) spent the better part of the last ten years co-fronting the epic A Northern Chorus , releasing four critically acclaimed records on Sonic Unyon and touring Canada, the US and the UK.
