About Blue October
Blue October isn'st just your average, everyday rock band from Texas. The group was formed in Houston in the late 's90s by lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Justin Furstenfeld, his
brother, drummer Jeremy, multi-instrumentalist Ryan Delahoussaye, later joined by guitarist/vocalist CB Hudson and bassist Matt Noveskey. The group'ss epic live shows and exploration of
subjects like mental depression, drug use, love, betrayal, forgiveness and cathartic transcendence have helped them amass a strong, loyal following through five albums, three of which
have been released by Universal Records.
