All About the Hudson Debacle
|
The Hudson Debacle is (was) a big fun rock band from the Boston area. Big and fun and singing along. We play all originals, which, for the sake of convenient comparison, YOUR (yes, the reader's) convenience, are similar to Replacements, Nightranger, Descendants, Queen, Weezer, heavy metal, Billy Idol, punk, new wave, new wave, and all sorts of different stuff. We are totally unique and impossible to describe. No, actually we're not too hard to describe, really, just big fun fast rock-rock and roll songs with crunchety guitar, a big fat throbbing pianist, and sing-along singing (you know, for singing-along - - for the KIDS, mug).
Lyrically, our songs are typically about alcoholism, teenage sex, and metaphysics. More can be heard, read and (potentially) understood at our MUSIC page . This is also where you can download FREE MUSIC . The income-enhanced should BUY A CD.
Central to our band is the notion of having fun. It is, to a massive degree, institutionalized within the band, and is our overarching guiding construct. In fact, we're thinking of having buttons made. We formed in February of 2000 as good friends, super-friends really. A theorist, an executive, a technologist, and a professor joining together to make sweet rock music for the new American intellectual and the (un)common drunkard. Tidbits of information (in lieu of cheese) about us as individual folks is available HERE.
The Hudson Debacle played about in New England. We hope to see you soon at a bar near us.
Follow your nose. Thanks, and mind your own business.
We Young and Handsome Gentlemen.

Dr. Chris Beck plays bass and sings for the Hudson Debacle. Chris was born and raised in Montana. He has a PhD in Physics from Tufts university and served in the US Armed forces. He used to sing and play bass for Sodlid, which is "dildos" spelled backwards, although one might take it for a code name for a toupee. They released a CD, which is very elusive. THD plays a song about a toupee, which would add to the confusion. Chris's favorite beer seems to be Harpoon IPA. He has lived in Somerville, and will and does live in DC. He has been a professor and post-doc researcher at North Eastern University in the fashionable South End (Roxbury), but now holds a congressional science fellowship, where he consults congress on issues of science. |
