Houston, United States (1995 – present)

Two artists have this name.
1.: A popular Alternative rock band which formed Houston, Texas in 1995 best known for the singles “Hate Me” and “Into the Ocean”
2.: A British neo-synthpop band formed in 1996 which has renamed themselves Blue October UK in respect to the more popular and older American band.

1.
Blue October is a Texas band headquartered in San Marcos, Texas, but is originally from Houston, Texas. The band was formed in 1995 and currently comprises Justin Furstenfeld (lead vocals), Jeremy Furstenfeld (drums, percussion), Ryan Delahoussaye (violin/viola, mandolin, keyboards, and vocals), C. B. Hudson (guitar) and Matt Noveskey (bass guitar). Previous band members have included Liz Mullally, Brant Coulter, Dwayne Casey and Piper Skih.

Their songs are deep reaching and deal with subject matters such as love, drug addiction, self hate, mental health, and current affairs. Their sound mixes pop and hard rock with a grunge edge. Some of the band’s melancholic songs exhibit vocals similar to those of Peter Gabriel or Roger Daltrey. On their more upbeat songs, they have been likened to U2 and sometimes, Pink Floyd, Phil Collins, Genesis, The Fray, and Nirvana.

Blue October signed to Universal Records with the release of Consent to Treatment in 2000. After sales did not meet expectations, Universal dropped them from their label. In 2003 Blue October released History for Sale on Dallas-based Brando Records, and was later resigned by Universal Records.

Great Band! Their earlier works / albums sound a lot different than their actual sound; you can hear the progress in becoming the band they are today. Love them!
