About Me

Houlegan is one indivdual, J. Houle. These songs are written, arranged, recorded, produced, mixed, re-mixed, mastered and performed by J. Houle himself. He plays all the instruments and does the vocals. Percussion is programmed through a drum machine. Recently Houle joined "buRne". Houle on bass, Ryan Carrier on Drums, Ant HoRne on wind pipes, and Chris BuRke on the six stringer. Be on the lookout for this new acoustic rock/alternative/grungy/bluesy power quad named 'buRne'.

Houle grew up and still resides in the small paper mill town once called boom town. His musical background is strongly influenced by family. While listenening in on his fathers various rock and roll bands and his brothers heavy metal bands, he would take the love of music and make it his way of life.It was the late eighties and out of childhood angnst, 'Dark Image' was formed with Houle and fellow band mates Greg Dobbin of 'Purenform' and Gary Gagne. They would go on to rule the first kid metal scene to rock Berlin, NH for that time period. Houle left the band to pursue his own artistical interests and since has been in various cover and original bands, currently in the band 'buRne.'Houle has played in the cover bands 'Third Degree,' 'Box,' 'Chaser,' and 'Overture,' and has played in the original bands 'Purenform,' 'No Tomorrow,' 'Living Tragedy' with Josh Scoppetto and 'The Dead River Band.' With 20+ years experience, Houle has been writing songs since as long as he can remember.Houle is a full-time college 'A' student with a 3.83 GPA. Houle is taking some newly added music theory classes at the White Mt. Community College to fulfill some humanities electives.buRne can be found at www.myspace.com/burnethelifestyleAlso my first friend on the listThese songs on here are some of Houles home recordings. The music is a blend of Blues/Punk/Rock/Metal/Alternative. There is no one label for it. Occasionally I will be switching up the metal and the more rock and bluesy stuff. Sometimes a little of this and sometimes of that. Right now I got some random shit on.
