Dinosaurs with Horns was formed in 1982 by Joseph Hammer and Rick Potts who had collaborated on several projects both individually and as members of the loosely formed collective, the Los Angeles Free Music Society (LAFMS). In the early 90's they began performing and recording extensively with ex-Monitor, Steve Thomsen, as the trio Solid Eye including a month-long tour of Japan in 2002. Over the years Potts and Hammer have each collaborated with an impressive array of noise/sound musicians. Some of these sound artists are LAFMS cohorts like Tom Recchion, Joe Potts,Smegma and John Duncan and others are internationally acclaimed experimentalists like Otomo Yoshihide, Eugene Chadbourne, Don Preston, Thomas Dimuzio, Chris Cutler and Keiji Heino.
