Prior to the band’s formation\, Tim Rushlow and Dwayne O’Brien began playing together in Arlington\, Texas\, in 1984. Porter Howell and Duane Propes got together while they were in high school in 1983 and moved to Nashville to attend Belmont University. Brady Seals and Del Gray played in the backup band of country music singer Josh Logan. Rushlow\, O’Brien\, Propes\, and Howell first started making music at Opryland as a 1950s show band. With both Rushlow’s first wife and Howell’s wife\, plus two other members\, they took the show band on the road\, naming their act “The Varsities”. \nWhen two of the members left to pursue other interests\, they contacted their old friends Gray and Seals\, whom they had met while playing in Springfield\, Massachusetts\, in hopes of forging a more country/Southern rock sound. All six members eventually moved to Nashville\, Tennessee\, where they started playing together. The band played at venues across the United States (around 300 dates a year)\, eventually catching the attention of Nashville’s division of Warner Bros. Records. \nHiatus and status of former members\nDuring the band’s hiatus\, Del Gray co-wrote Trace Adkins’ 2000 single “More”. Former frontman Tim Rushlow signed to Atlantic Records as a solo artist that same year\, releasing a self-titled album. Although it accounted for four singles\, including the No. 8 “She Misses Him”\, Atlantic closed its country music division in 2001. Rushlow then founded a second band\, Rushlow\, whose members included his cousin Doni Harris. Rushlow released two singles and one album (Right Now) on Lyric Street Records\, but disbanded by 2004. Seals founded the band Hot Apple Pie\, which released a self-titled album and three singles in 2005\, while Rushlow and Harris founded the duo Rushlow Harris a year later. In addition\, Howell recorded one album in the band Hilljack\, which also included former solo artist Paul Jefferson. \nReunion: Duane Propes\, Del Gray\, Porter Howell\, and Dwayne O’Brien decided to reunite Little Texas in 2004. When Little Texas reunited\, Rushlow and Huskins made a legal attempt to keep their ex-bandmates from using the Little Texas name. As the other four members felt uncomfortable singing lead vocals in Rushlow’s and Seals’s absence\, they recruited Steven Troy as new lead vocalist. However\, O’Brien was critical of Troy’s performance as lead singer\, stating that it “just didn’t feel authentic”; as a result\, he exited the band in 2006. By the time the band had signed to Montage Music Group in 2007\, producers for the label had suggested that Howell take over on lead vocals instead. Their first Montage Music release was the live album The Very Best of Little Texas: Live and Loud. They promoted this album on the Triple Threat Tour that year\, which included both Restless Heart and Blackhawk; touring guitarist Mark Sutton accompanied the band on both the tour and the live album. This was followed one month later by the studio album Missing Years. This album produced three singles\, although only one — the title track — made the country charts\, peaking at No. 45. Another studio album with Howell on lead vocals\, Young for a Long Time\, followed in 2015. \n2004-present: Little Texas has continued to tour constantly averaging 65 shows a year. In 2022\, they are celebrating the 30th anniversary of the release of their debut album\, First Time For Everything. \nLittle Texas Website | Little Texas Facebook Page \n\n\nBest Hotels in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota\nThe Lodge on Lake Detroit & The Spa Within\nBest Western Premier The Lodge On Lake Detroit\, a Lifestyle Lakefront Minnesota Hotel\, offers a great location and numerous amenities that make us the premier lakefront lodging destination for Historic Holmes Theatre attendees.
