WAIT WAIT I'M SO CONFUSED. ARE THE HUSHIES AND THE HUSH SOUND TWO DIFFERENT BANDS? PLEASE SEND HELP.

[elucreh]

Nooooo, no, they are the same! Never fear!

[thalialunacy]

omg then I actually know them. my ex-fiance burned me a disk of some of their stuff and although I haven't gotten to know it intimately I really really like a couple tracks. I FEEL SO COOL NOW. :B

:DDDDDDDDDDDD

(They are also the original band of the Greta that I talk to you about essentially endlessly, lol)

[thalialunacy]

yeah i saw that... original meaning she's not involved anymore, or she's just flighty like all musicians and has eight other 'projects'?

They started THS when they were in high school; they put together and toured for three albums, then took a "break" which everyone who loves them was terrified meant their label issues had DESTROYED THEM and we would NEVER HEAR FROM THEM AGAIN, and Greta went on to form a band of retro-summery-pop called Gold Motel. (I went to New York to hear them. YES I'M THAT CRAZY, but you knew that.) Gold Motel put out two albums but stayed mostly off-official-label; I like their music? But it's not my style as much as The Hush Sound's is, and Greta and Bob (of the Hushies) really balance each other well, I think.

Bob tried to be part of STAMPS for a while, although he hasn't been in a couple of years; Chris disappeared into the ether as far as I know; Darren drummed randomly with a lot of local bands and also was part of a band that called itself Debate Team. That band was not super successful. (...shockingly)
