The Trimms (Houston, TX)
https://www.facebook.com/thetrimms
The pinnacle of Rock in the Montrose right now can be found in a little ole band from Houston that calls themselves The Trimms. Recently nominated for Best Rock band in Houston (vote for them), this trio brings blues-based rock back with a fury.
The Trimms are a stinging guitar, powerful vocals, one of the best drummers in Houston (Gabe Bravo, vote for him on his individual Houston Press Music Award nomination), and a bass player that can shred an electric guitar. Rock should bring passion. The Trimms Rock with passion, for sure.
To boot, many great artists and performers that frequent the Montrose will entertain revelers between sets. Be Ready for artists installations and wares, spoken word, performance art, news satire, hula hooping, and spankings. Yes, spankings!

Tiziano Dominico is a singer, songwriter, and visual artist living in Houston, TX. Tiziano grew up in the Northside of Houston in a very loving home as the son of an artist who encouraged and nurtured Tiziano’s creative expression in both music and art. Tiziano has been in several bands, most notably georgia’s Horse.
After receiving his Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy (with a focus in both Eastern thought and Analytical Philosophy) and Psychology, traveling abroad and experiencing many adventures, Tiziano has chosen songwriting to be his main form of artistic and creative expression. His subject matter ranges from the literal to the abstract, all stemming from the most elemental and contemplative aspects of our human experience.
Tiziano creates his songs with only his guitar and his voice. Despite his dedication to this bare-bones method of songcraft, he firmly believes that performing and collaborating with musicians of technical goodness, aesthetic appeal, and high creativity are the necessary conditions for elevating his songs to their full musical potential.
Tiziano Dominico is: Matt Willhelm – Bass, Backing Vocals , Omar Felker -Lead Guitar, Backing Vocals, Pastor Oropeza – Drums, Percussions and Backing Vocals and Tiziano Dominico – Rhythm Guitar and Lead Vocals.
