Earl “Huggy Bear” Hinton, born in Burnet, TX circa 1985, has had a guitar in his hands since he could walk. Now at a ripe young age of 30, Huggy has “seen the miles” so to say. With a life long ambition for creating music that’s rooted back to his love for 80’s & 90’s country music embedded with his southern upraising. With a love for “real country music” and a “rockers soul”, Huggy Bear will surely light up a room every time he takes the stage. With a résumé that will surely speak for itself, Huggy has played shows supporting such acts as Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blue Oyster Cult, Billy Joel Shaver, & The Bellamy Brothers to name a few. And countless hours on stage playing for such acts as Jackson Taylor, Jarrod Birmingham, Pete Benz, Kings of the Motel 6, and here recently with The Pear Ratz, & Donny Brewer & the Dock Rockers.
