Hands Up houston was founded in 1999 in an effort to bring more shows to Houston. Basically we got tired of driving to austin to see our favorite bands. Essentially this is the same purpose we serve today; To bring our favorite out of town bands to Houston. All of our shows are ALL AGES unless expressly noted. We are run collectively in a DIY (Do It Yourself!) manner.

Beacause we promote shows of bands We love, We make sure that the shows are their best. We have professional sound at all our shows, friendly people at the door, and free water coolers. We only book in friendly intimate spaces. We promote every show with pretty posters, handbills, print ads, as well as our website.

HANDS UP HOUSTON ensures that the bands we book get paid their guarantees and make sure everybody gets treated fairly.
