Texas Hippie Coalition

Texas Hippie Coalition (also initialized as THC) is a rock band from Denison, Texas. Big Dad Ritch and John Exall met in Denison, Texas. Because Denison was a small town with a very limited number of musicians, rival bands were forced to go on road trips together to cities such as Dallas to do shows. Originally from rival bands, Ritch, Randy and John got together and started playing, writing and eventually recording together. Shortly thereafter, THC emerged from the Red River Valley bordering the North Texas and southern Oklahoma and began a tour promoting their independent album "Pride of Texas". They toured from coast to coast, putting themselves in front of fans everywhere with their style of music called "red dirt metal"(red earth metal).
