Mike Stinson Band


Sons of Hermann Hall

An evening of live original music from one of the best songwriters and bands on the road today.  Join us for Houston's country rocker, Mike Stinson on Saturday, June 2.

Raised in Virginia, schooled in DC, Mike moved to Los Angeles where eighteen years made him a veteran of what he calls "the trenches of beer joint warfare." The last six years have found him based in Houston and barnstorming the roadhouses of Texas week in and week out.

Few, if any walk, away from a Mike Stinson show unaffected by his particular slant. His songs are the thrills, chills, and spills of life, filled with razor-sharp wordplay, charm, depth, poignancy and musical muscle. “Mike Stinson is dangerous, the kind of songwriter who can upend the way you see the world with a single line, and whose lean, mean rock and roll machine of a band usually starts at a Chuck Berry gallop and goes from there. They can crank it so hard, in fact, it’s entirely possible to miss all the diamond-tipped rejoinders, double entendres, aphorisms and the occasional outright burn that litter Stinson’s songs, and make him one of the wickedest lyricists around today.” HOUSTON PRESS
