Eleven Hundred Springs
Formed in 1998, the Dallas based quintet known as Eleven Hundred Springs have grown a massive fan base across Texas, California, and the South through constant touring, relentless grassroots promotion, and making country jams that are second to none in the vastly over-populated "Texas Music Scene". Lead vocalist/lead guitarist Matt Hillyer and upright bassist/backing vocalist Steve Berg have been best friends, songwriting collaborators, and musical sidekicks since their teenage years fronting the legendary Dallas based rockabilly group, Lone Star Trio which packed houses across the nation with the likes of the Toadies, Tripping Daisy, Hagfish and The Cramps to name a few. Rounding out Eleven Hundred Springs stellar lineup percussionist, skin beater & platinum selling rock star incognito Mark Reznicek (formerly of Fort Worth based rock band The Toadies ), third generation fiddler extraordinaire Jordan Hendrix aka "The golden child", and the newest member of the group, steel guitarist Danny Crelin. Critically acclaimed by fans, media and industry-ites alike, the members of Eleven Hundred Springs are collectively making the best music of their careers, which is a bold statement considering the national success of Lone Star Trio and the Toadies. Alterna-papers such as the Dallas Observer and Fort Worth Weekly have both praised the band with many accolades, much to the effect of numerous "Best of" nominations and fan voted wins in "Best Country / Roots Band" categories. Quite an accomplishment in the musically populated Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. In 2004, the band signed with Tennessee based label Palo Duro Records ( Dale Watson, The Derailers ) and their 14 song disc, Bandwagon, their third studio effort, enjoyed tremendous radio success reaching #1 on XM Radio's X-Country Album chart and even charting on the nationwide Americana chart, including a coveted spot in the Americana Music Association's Top 100 albums of 2004 list. Having played and collaborated with legends like "The Waxahachie Wildman" Ronnie Dawson, "The Originator" Bo Diddley, and D/FW rockabilly forbearers Reverend Horton Heat as well as share bills with national fan favorites like the Old 97s, Jack Ingram, & Hank Williams III, Eleven Hundred Springs could quite possibly be the next big thing to come out of Dallas' highly acclaimed Alt-Country scene. Currently, the band is hard at work collaborating on new material for an upcoming album due out just before Christmas 2006 and a West Coast tour starting in January 2007. After selling out shows and packing festivals across the Lone Star state, the best is yet to come. Hop aboard the bandwagon and watch these long haired, tattooed, hippie freaks take country music to a whole new generation and give the finger to the pop Country Nashville establishment, one country jam at a time.
