Biography

Brownsville Station, an American rock band from Ann Arbor, Michigan, formed in 1969 with original members Cub Koda, Mike Lutz, T.J. Cronley, and Tony Driggins. The band's early albums featured covers of songs by bands that had inspired them. In 1970, they released their debut studio album No BS on a Warners Bros. label. Their breakthrough came with the top-10 hit single "Smokin' in the Boys Room" from their 1973 album Yeah!, which reached number 3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and sold over two million copies, earning a gold disc status by the RIAA on January 15, 1974. Other notable singles include "Martian Boogie" (1977) and "Lady (Put The Light On Me)" (1977). In 1978, their final studio album Air Special was released by Epic Records before the band disbanded in 1979. Post-breakup, Cub Koda pursued a solo career and wrote liner notes for numerous retro releases. Mike Lutz produced many bands, including Ted Nugent's Spirit of the Wild. Henry "H-Bomb" Weck continued to record and produce music. In 2008, Brownsville Station was inducted into the Michigan Rock and Roll Legends Hall of Fame. The band reunited in 2012 with new members Billy Craig, Arlen Viecelli, and Brad Johnson, releasing Still Smokin,' featuring updated versions of their classic hits.
