MIKE HOUGHTON

A classic rock guitar player with the heart of a blues man, Mike is a rock solid part of what makes ROCKET 88 possible. Mike spent some time playing with Mott The Hoople recently in a daydream.

SHAWN WELLS

MAYNARD HULL JR.

Maynard was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin. When he was 8 his family moved to Oregon and Maynard has considered himself a Central Oregonian ever since. The drum bug bit Maynard at 10 years old and by 15 he was providing the back beat for his first band. Maynard has played in many bands around Oregon including Freightliner, Crystal Rhythm, The Switch & Wasteland Blues Band. Maynard also did a 10 year stint with The Jerry Kershaw Band in La Grande, Oregon. After returning to Central Oregon Maynard played with local favorites Rumors. Helping to form Rocket 88 has allowed Maynard to play the music he loves while living in Central Oregon where he feels so much at home. Why ROCKET 88? We don’t ask we are just glad he keeps showing up.
