About Tin Huey
Akron, Ohio's Tin Huey were part of a number of New Wave bands to emerge in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. Like Pere Ubu and Devo (who also hailed from Akron), Tin Huey were arty and progressive, with an experimental sensibility that added a nice counterbalance to their melodic instincts. Signed to Warner Brothers on the strength of their cover of the Monkees’ “I’m a Believer," Tin Huey’s full-length debut, CONTENTS DISLODGED DURING SHIPMENT, was too idiosyncratic to strike a mainstream chord. They disbanded a year later, and their two principal members, Chris Butler and Ralph Carney, went on to form the Waitresses and Swollen Monkeys, respectively. Tin Huey regrouped in the late ‘90s and released DISINFORMATION (1999).
