history

Houndmouth was founded in the summer of 2011. After performing regionally in Louisville and Indiana, she performed at the SXSW Music Festival in March 2012 to promote her first self-produced EP, Houndmouth . The manager of Rough Trade Records, Geoff Travis, offered her a recording deal shortly afterwards. In 2012, Houndmouth was "Band of the Week" for the English-language newspaper The Guardian .

Houndmouth's debut album, From the Hills Below the City , was released by Rough Trade in 2013. This led to appearances on late night shows such as Letterman, Conan, World Cafe, and at some major music festivals (ACL, Americana Music Festival, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Newport Folk Festival). SPIN and Esquire.com named Houndmouth as a "must-see" band at the Lollapalooza Festival.

The second album Little Neon Limelight was released on March 17, 2015 on the same label.

On April 8, 2016 it was announced that Katie Toupin is leaving the band to carry out private projects.
