Lion Among Men

Music – Houston

Lion Among Men is the most honest music we could possibly make. Completely unfiltered from the soul. Haunting harmonies and emotion invoking melodies are our creed. Originally an acoustic duo, Andrew Dethloff and Austin Clark had been making music together since they were awkward, gangly teenagers. After playing various other bands together, they finally grew tired of relying on others and decided to lead their own charge. In January of 2012, they got a house in downtown Houston together, and turned it into a giant recording and practice space, now commonly referred to as \"the LAM Den.\" The LAM Den is home base for all LAM happenings. From hosting shows and practicing to recording and just living, the LAM Den has become a safe haven for us all. Though offered a few label contracts over the past year or so, we decided to not give up the reins. LAM is completely independent. We 100% record, manage, fund, and promote ourselves. In early 2013, percussionist Amanda Bell and fretless bass player Devin Smithers were added to the roster to cope with the new attention and larger shows. The first single featuring all members released is entitled \"The Visitor\" and is available now. In full swing, the new LAM plays shows all around the state and will release a new album this winter!
