Waking Up In Vegas is a four piece band that mixes a
blend of “fresh faced” pop, with the upbeat and catchy
rhythms of pop/punk/alternative music. Although they have
only released their first EP, they are in the process of
recording their debut album “Breathe”; which is to be
released late 2010/early 2011. They prove to be a product
of long term friendship, and are passionate musicians, which
greatly reflects their live performances. The group consists of Jon Hinz (lead vocals,
acoustic guitar and piano), Dave Houghton (guitar, vocals), John Cameron
(bass/vocals) and Matt Godin (drums, percussion). Currently signed to Earth Bound
Records, the band plans to take the music industry by storm, so that you will catch
yourself singing along to one of their hit songs in the near future."
