The Adventures of Snappy: Electric Attitude Edition

Posted on January 29, 2014 by Hosting

The post The Adventures of Snappy: Electric Attitude Edition appeared first on HostGator Web Hosting Blog | Gator Crossing . It’s been a little while since Snappy hit the town to see some live music.  If you’ve missed his prior adventures, check out the archives right here . Snappy recently witnessed Houston’s very own Electric Attitude playing at the legendary Number’s nightclub.  As per normal, given his VIP access, Snappy was able to enjoy the show from the best seat in the house, right on stage:   Electric Attitude are the undisputed kings of Houston Funk/Soul/R&B, having taken home the Houston Press Awards in that category for three years running (2011-2013).  With unique instrumentation, including an EWI (electric wind instrument), the band delivers an impressive mix of cross-genre appeal, seamlessly gliding into rock, blues and dance territory. EA’s high-energy live show translates exceptionally well to their most recent album, Skintight & Solid Gold ( Gr8 Heights Records ).  Snappy was fortunate enough to catch up with the guys once again at the recent Houston Press Artopia Event , for another quick photo op including the aforementioned new album:   Electric Attitude are a truly great live band; Snappy highly recommends you go see them when they come to your town! If you have an event in the Houston or Austin area that you would like for Snappy to attend, please get in touch with us by emailing feedback@hostgator.com ATTN: Blog. web hosting Continue reading →

The Adventures of Snappy: Ryan Scroggins & The Trenchtown Texans Edition

Posted on May 18, 2013 by Hosting

Snappy recently had the pleasure of hanging out on-stage and backstage with Houston’s own Ryan Scroggins & The Trenchtown Texans. The band’s namesake and frontman is a veritable renaissance man; artist, multi-instrumentalist, song writer, professional tattoo artist and former herpetologist for the Houston Zoo.  Mr. Scroggins originally made a name for himself in the music world as the organist for the well-known ska band Los Skarnales. The Trenchtown Texans play a unique mix of Americana/Ska/Roots/Reggae/Swamp music and have released three albums and toured extensively, however these days the band only makes appearances sporadically.  As such, it was truly a pleasure for Snappy to be able to share the stage with them at Houston’s Continental Club: After the show, Snappy was fortunate enough to spend a few minutes with Mr. Scroggins.  Having again been a former Herpetologist for the Houston Zoo, Ryan is very familiar with gators, however this would be his first encounter with a blue gator: If you have a keen eye, you’ll be able to spot Snappy in the video below of the band performing “Too Tired to Fight”: A quick YouTube search will return lots of videos of this great band, and if they happen to come to your town do make it a point to check them out live. If you have an event in the Houston or Austin area that you would like for Snappy to attend, please get in touch with us by emailing feedback@hostgator.com ATTN: Blog. Continue reading →
