After several solo band projects, Griffin Holtby decided he wanted to “put together a band so I can play with my friends, a party band this time!” Texas Turmoil was born. We are a relatively new cover band playing rock and country covers, and entertaining everybody who wants to listen and vibe along.

Griffin’s bands have won a few competitions, including Wildflower Festival Battle of The Bands and The Earth Day Rising Stars Competition at Fair Park , sponsored by Texas Music project. Griffin met William Dunhill performing at a charity event when they were both 16. From competing high schools, they both have a competitive nature but quickly became friends, and have worked together and supported each other for 10 years. They’re both Dallas musicians with no Plan B.

Holtby’s vocals and warmth as a frontman are complimented by William Dunhill on guitar and Simon Stake on bass, with Ty Lewis on drums and Ian Kramer, keyboard. We bring young energy to your venue/location. Our setlist is 75% country covers with some rock artists like Lenny Kravitz, Tom Petty, and John Mayer.
