The Sin Hounds

Sorry everyone but we are on hiatus....

About Me

The Sin Hounds are a three piece band that have been conjuring up quite a buzz in the heavily populated Atlanta music scene. Singer/guitarist Jon Harris, drummer/vocalist Brad Fowler, and bassist/vocalist Clint Aul weave a potent blend of Rock & Roll that has been described as “blue-to-the bone with the balls of 70s vinyl.” Taking their queue from groups like the Black Crowes, Derek and the Dominos, & The Black Keys, the Sin Hounds are anything but cliché.

For the last three years the trio has been busy building their Atlanta fan base as well as their regional following. Being able to share the stage with such names as Tishamingo, Blueground Undergrass, & Johnny Neal has prepared these three to deliver a tight, power-packed set. Their live show has been described in reviews by both Jamebase.com and the Southeastern Performer as a moving and jaw dropping experience.

The Sin Hounds two releases, Last Days of Chattanooga & Story to Tell, have been met with praise from critics and fans. Last Days, an “edgy mix of down-and-dirty rockers and moody acoustic numbers”, has been described as “greasy” and “hip”. Story to Tell, is a snap shot of the band during a sold out, hometown show in Atlanta and documents the energy of a Sin Hounds performance. This March the Sin Hounds will be heading into the studio w/ legendary producer David Barbe (R.E.M., the Drive-by Truckers) to start recording their second studio release.

From the guitar and lap steel to the driving drums and bass, their music and vigor truly knows no boundaries. It invites the listener to experience it with the band. Despite the Sin Hounds experience, they are just beginning.
