In the mid-2000s, One Mississippi—the band name, not the river name—existed quietly in Austin's tumultuous, ever-evolving music scene. Fusing punk rock energy with a collaborative, "good ol' Austin" spirit, the band included members of groups like Molecular Steve, Damnations, and Grand Champeen. Their music captured something special during their brief run from 2003 to 2008—until life took its toll.

Their story might have ended there if not for Ron Byrd's unwavering belief in the band's unreleased, self-titled album. In 2023, Byrd reunited with longtime friend and Strolling Bones Records owner George Fontaine Sr., who declared the album "the best unreleased indie rock record I've ever heard."

Now, after nearly two decades, One Mississippi's lost album has finally seen the light of day. From the driving opening track "Told You So" to the gritty charm of "Kid Abandon" and "Leon," the record feels raw and fresh -- a time capsule of Austin's identity in transition.
