Hounds of Jezebel formed in the summer of 2010. John Curry(vocals, guitars), Chris Loveless(guitars), “Rooster” Rodriguez(bass, vocals), and Mike Neyra(drums, vocals) met through a mutual friend and quickly developed a unique friendship and a distinctly original sound.

After a line up change in early 2014, Hounds of Jezebel welcomed Raf Rivera (bass, vocals) to the family. Having been seasoned pro’s, (goneblind, Earshot, Scott Stapp, The Hunger), these guys have obviously seen the big stage. But it’s their chemistry, only having been together for a short time, that draws you to them. Their ability to connect. To Play. To Rock. Is undeniable……Hounds of Jezebel.

“As the curtains slowly opened, the stage lights peaked out over the audience. Reminiscent of legendary Led Zeppelin, slow melodic guitar tones begin to radiate throughout the venue, followed by vocals “You Know I haven’t been good, but this is what you wanted girl”. Quickly the music erupted into full rock ensemble of guitar, bass, drums and vocals, known as The Dead Woods.” – Front Row Music News

In early 2014, Mark Wendell, on guitar and vocals, Austin Getz, on drums and vocals, and Sean Fagan, on bass and vocals, formed the lo-fi rock band called, The Dead Woods and released their first album, “Seventy Cedar”. 2014 was an amazing year for the band with two appearances at The House of Blues. The first was in January when they opened for the sold out show of the Crosses. The second HOB show was in November, when they supported the 101.1 Queued Up performance of The Eeries.

Also, Chicago’s Alternative radio station, 101.1, took notice with Walt Flakus spinning The Dead Woods on numerous occasions on his Sunday night, 101.1 Queued Up series, as well as regular rotation spins during the week. To start out the 2015 year, The Dead Woods, returned to the House of Blues on January 10 to headline a five artist line-up.  – John Kosiewicz, Front Row Music News
