Ho-Hum is a pop/rock band based in Bradley, Arkansas, United States, formed by the brothers Lenny and Rod Bryan.

History

The band was formed when Lenny and Rod Bryan, sports scholarship students, were attending Ouachita Baptist University during the early 1990s. A homemade demo earned 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 their contractual obligation to Universal when the band claimed the label did not sufficiently promote the album.Werner Trieschmann, "Ho-Hum still enjoying the ride", Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, November 12, 2006. The band eventually formed its own label, Playadel Records, through which several subsequent albums have been released.

In 2010, Ho-Hum took part in the [https://arktimes.com/rock-candy/2010/08/19/vinos-celebrates-its-20th-anniversary-in-the-most-awesome-way-possible 20th Birthday Celebration for VINO'S], the absolutely pivotal Little Rock, Arkansas venue located at 7th and Chester.

In 2013, the band adopted Chris Michaels on guitar, and [https://www.fayettevilleflyer.com/2013/04/18/riverfest-releases-full-2013-music-lineup/ played Riverfest] for what would turn out to be their last show together.
