Remember Hootie and the Blowfish? I’m sure you do. They were a huge hit in the early to mid 90s and were from South Carolina, therefore they got a lot of air play in our area (and even “made an appearance” at the last Great Cover Up at King’s). It seems that The Blowfish are still touring and lead singer Darius Rucker is now on the Country Music scene writing and recorded for various artists. Rucker has also just recently decided to support The Latta House Foundation with a Public Service Announcement.
The Latta House Foundation is proud to announce that Darius Rucker of Hootie & The Blowfish has recorded a public service announcement for our community outreach campaign. This will be broadcast at various college radio stations across the state of North Carolina in hopes of educating students about our history, and in effort to seek supporters, partners, sponsors and volunteers. Mr. Rucker is currently working on a country solo album due to release this Fall. Visit his website to hear his first latest new single , Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It at http://www.myspace.com/dariusrucker
