Ho-Hum is a pop/rock band based in Little Rock, Arkansas, formed by brothers Lenny and Rod Bryan.

The band was formed while Lenny and Rod Bryan, sports scholarship students, were attending Ouachita Baptist University in the early 1990s. A homemade demo landed the band a label deal with Universal Records, which released its first album, Local, in 1996, produced by Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley. Ho-Hum asked and were granted release from contractual obligation to Universal; the band claimed the label did not sufficiently promote the album.[1] The band eventually formed its own label, Playadel Records, through which several subsequent albums have been released.
As of 2007[update], Ho-Hum are still writing new music, as well as performing in Little Rock, Arkansas and were recently named "band of the decade" by Localist Magazine, a popular Little Rock magazine.
Rod Bryan ran as an independent candidate in the Arkansas gubernatorial election, 2006, coming in third in popular votes.
In 2006, Rod Bryan started a new band, "Western Meds" and later formed "First Baptist Chemical" in 2011. In 2009, Lenny Bryan formed the band "Mama."
