HOBSON'S CHOICE is an American progressive rock quartet, with all its members originating from New Orleans. They have so far released one album, titled New Horizons, a work that remained mostly unknown (though not necessarily obscure, as far as the music is concerned); the band, however, is promoting better its music these last three years, mostly through concerts, while also preparing a second album.
The admiration and focus on classic 70s prog rock is for sure the entire axis on which HOBSON'S CHOICE revolve. Grouped around 1992, the initial quartet was made out of David Stocker on keyboards, bassist Joel Webb, vocalist and songwriter Stan Elder (one of his songs having survived, included on the debut) and Tom Larson on drums and percussions, the last two being afterwards replaced by Richard Bird (guitar and vocals) and Doug Walsh (percussions). Throughout the first years, HOBSON'S CHOICE mainly played covers of prog rock pieces, by titans such as GENTLE GIANT, ELP, GENESIS, YES, PFM, PINK FLOYD, but they've transitioned towards original prog-making soon after, the prior act of tributing having solidified into clear, straightforward influences. New Horizons was mainly desired to be HOBSON'S CHOICE best debut input, after extended composing and recording
