The Houghton Project

About The Houghton Project

“My name is Bob Houghton, I live in Meridian, Idaho. I first got into playing music in my early 20's playing bass in cover bands and original bands. After attending many hard rock concerts, I felt the need to get into writing my own songs. I taught myself some guitar, built a home studio and that’s when the real journey began. I have been recording my own music for about 30 years, improving my song writing process over the years with help from jamming with some fine musicians. I also completed a course in “The Recording Connection Bachelors Program” for audio recording. I have some of my songs on the usual streaming platforms as well as Bandcamp, Reverbnation, Soundcloud, N1M, Etc. I am a member of the International Singer Songwriters Association and the Idaho songwriters association.
I recently retired from a long career in the auto repair industry as a service advisor and managing repair shops. I am now able to spend more time on my passion; writing and recording music and creating music videos to go with them”.
