[edit] Origin

The band was formed by Aaron Closson and Ryan Short in 2003 when the two met and began writing songs together. After just a few short months they managed to borrow the requisite gear from friends and recruited the rest of the line up, which included one of Short’s old high school friends, Adam Vanderkolk. After the original bassist left the band Tim Jansen was recruited via mutual friend Torr Leonard.

[edit] Currently

The Hourly Radio have just finished the first leg of their nationwide tour, [1] and have dates in the near future. Also notable is the fact that the band was "Artist of the Day" on July 21, 2006, at Spin.com. [2]

Billboard critic Jason MacNeil named the album History Will Never Hold Me as the number 1 record of 2006.[3]
