The Other Side Of The Story

by admin ~ January 17th, 2007

Dusti Rhodes from the Houston Press interviewed a few of us and got a slightly different side of the story then the one printed in the Houston Chronicle last week. Prepare yourselves for a tragic tale of rejection and reconciliation…

The Unusual Suspects - He said, he said with Houston’s former ska kings

BTW - Why does everybody seem to think that using a “Ususal Suspects” reference when talking about us is still funny?

Houston Chronicle Pimps The Suspects

We’d like to give a big thank you to Sarah Cress and The Houston Chronicle for a very classy take on the history of the band. She did a great job with the article, and the podcast is super-smooth!

Who’s Gonna Be There?

by admin ~ January 2nd, 2007

The question has been raised, “Who exactly is playing in the band for the reunion show?”.  An excellent question! This wouldn’t be a proper reunion if all of your favorite Suspects weren’t in attendance, so we are happy to report the line-up as we currently know it:

  • Thomas (vocals)
  • Alan (guitar)
  • Bill (guitar)
  • Charlie (bass)
  • Joe (keyboards)
  • Ryan (trombone)
  • Steve (trumpet)
  • Andy (sax)
  • Chuy (sax)
  • Aaron (trumpet)
  • Jay (bass) <-- newly added!

This list is certainly not final… we’re trying get as many ex-Suspects on stage as we can. We’ll update this list as it changes.

The Suspects Reunion Show!

by admin ~ November 26th, 2006

The Suspects will reunite for one show only on Friday January 19th 2007 at the Continental Club in Houston. Details are sketchy beyond that, but we will update this space once more info is known.

We’re all damn happy to get the chance to play in front of y’all again, and we hope everyone can turn up for the party.

Quick, Check Your Butt!

The Suspects Are None More Black

by admin ~ October 26th, 2006

I’m slowly going through all my sites and upgrading the blogging software to the current versions and I’ve taken the time to install a new theme here at suspects.billgrady.com. I never really thought the default look that WordPress gave me felt right for The Suspects, but I also never had enough time to change it to what did “feel right”. Anyways, more changes will come along soon… a few people happen across this site every day and as long as they get something out of the music it’s worth my time to keep this info current. Thanks to all who email and buy Cd’s; old memories = good feelings. :-)
