about
There are more than one artist/group by the name Hosta: 1) UK Drum & Bass Producer from Newcastle (originally Manchester). 2) Electro musician from France. 3) Hosta (the band) is a high-energy rock band with three members playing various synthesizers, guitars, and drums (both electronic and acoustic). Carefully crafting their songs, Hosta draws influence from all over the left side of the pop spectrum - concocting their own distinct voice which comes out as Post-Punk, Electronica, R&B, Garage Rock with Laser sounds. Hosta's members are consist of Greg Moore on vocals, synth, samples, and guitar; Michael Jordan on vocals, synth, samples, and guitar; and Randy Kehne on electronic and acoustic drums. Michael and Greg’s vocals bring two different styles to the music with Greg’s seething talky style and Michael’s rich, honey-tone vocals. Indierockcafe.com selected Hosta for their Band of the Week series and compared them to Pavement and Weezer. "The more we have listened to their self-titled debut over the past half year, the more it has proven itself as one of the best under-the-radar debuts of the year." In 2009, we were nominated for a Northwest Arkansas Music Award. From their base in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Hosta has been playing venues in the Midwest since 2008. Since then, Their sound has become increasingly experimental and electronic. In 2009, Hosta released a self-titled EP which quickly sold out. Their new album "Bearfish" was released in January 2011.
