About Me

EBH was born in a rice field in Muckdeck, Alabama. Raised like dogs to be lethal enforcers for Bob Hoskins, they soon found their way to music and ice cream. Ice cream continues to treat them well. They are currently in rehab and promoting their bestselling Oprah book club memoir, "A Million Little Pieces".
