Heat miser
Heatmiser was an American alternative rock band that was formed in Portland, Oregon in 1991 and lasted until 1996.
Band history
As students at Hampshire College in Amherst (Massachusetts) , Neil Gust and Elliott Smith (both guitar and vocals) founded a band in 1987, which, in addition to cover versions of Ringo Starr and Elvis Costello, also played their own songs. After graduation, they both moved to Portland, where they revived the band with Brandt Peterson (bass) and Tony Lash (drums) as Heatmiser. Peterson left the band in 1994, with Sam Coomes on bass. Lash left in 1996, with John Moon taking over the drums in his place. In the same year, Heatmiser broke up after producing their third album Mic City Sons .
