Southern Backtones was an American Southwestern rock band from Houston, Texas composed of Hank Schyma, Todd Sommer, and John Griffin. It was formed by Hank Schyma in the late ’90s and is often described as, “Brit-influenced rock with roots planted firmly in Texas,” “moody voodoo rock that intertwines with Spaghetti Western and devil-may-care rock ‘n roll.” They released their first album in 1998, and in the following 15 years they’ve been on MTV2 and Much Music, collected local accolades, and played with bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Old 97's, and Hayes Carll.
