Belleville Outfit Biography:
Marshall Hood, Rob Teter, and Jeff Brown were in a band in high school called the DesChamps Band. They split up after high school, however, and didn't reconnect until later, in Austin, when they had booked a slot at Merlefest. They recruited local singer-songwriter Hunt and some of Teter's friends from college in New Orleans, to form a new band called Belleville Outfit. Since then, they've toured with Lyle Lovett, Ricky Skaggs, and Del McCoury Band, and have continued to draw crowds at festivals across the country.
