Huffamoose

Known for quirky, abstract, and eccentric songs, Philadelphia alternative rockers Huffamoose have enjoyed an enthusiastic cult following since the early '90s. The uncompromising band was formed in 1992 when singer Craig Elkins joined forces with guitarist Kevin Hanson, bassist Jim Stager, and drummer Erik Johnson. The Huffamoose rockers, all of whom had been music majors at Philly's Temple University, recorded their self-titled debut album for the 7 label in 1993. By 1997, Huffamoose was signed to Interscope; Although 1997's "We've Been Had Again" (Huffamoose's second album) received its share of favorable coverage, with its hit single "Wait", reaching 34 on the Billboard Modern Rock charts in 1998. Interscope ended up dropping them (and many other artists) from their roster to focus on the hip-hop market. Huffamoose released "I Wanna Be Your Pants" on Shanachie Records in 2000. After playing random reunion shows over the years Huffamoose was brought back together in 2018 by label President John Fisher to produce “... and That’s When the Golf Ball hit Me in the Head” on Winding Way Records.
