Kyle Hubbard Named Houston Press Artist of the Week

Artist of the Week: Kyle Hubbard

Each Wednesday, Rocks Off arbitrarily appoints one lucky local performer or group "Artist of the Week," bestowing upon them all the fame and grandeur such a lofty title implies. Know a band or artist that isn't awful? Email their particulars to introducingliston@gmail.com.
Somehow, Kyle Hubbard has operated in anonymity (from us, anyway) for the duration of his music career. His plain tenor vocals (think daytime accountant) don’t do much in the way of broadcasting his intent, but what’s lacking in style is made up for in lyrical dexterity. And when we heard “Passive,” a politically charged track on his debut album, Tea Time With Alice, the decision to sign him to our Artist of the Week record label wasn’t exactly difficult.Hubbard gave us a few minutes to discuss the non-dilemma of him being white, why your vote yesterday was pointless (not really) and the merit of Do or Die’s “Po Pimpin” ideology.
