This Is What Happens When ZZ Top Meets Pantera!

It happens all the time! Every type genre mixing. matching, and fornicating into sub-genres. Sometime they work, sometimes they don’t! In the case of Southern Metal, it did. Especially for bands like THC, The Texas Hippie Coalition.

About The Band

Big Dad Ritch, Randy Cooper and John Exall found each other in Denison, Texas. Being a small town with a very limited amount of musicians, rival bands were forced to work together to set up road trips to cities, such as Dallas, in order to play shows. Originally starting in rival bands, Ritch, Randy and John banded together and started playing, writing and eventually recording together.

Shortly thereafter, Texas Hippie Coalition emerged from The Red River Valley that borders Northern Texas and Southern Oklahoma and began touring in support of their self-released album Pride of Texas. They toured from coast-to-coast, putting themselves in front of fans everywhere with their style of music dubbed “red dirt metal.”
