Michael Houser was born on January 6, 1962 in Boone, North Carolina. While attending the University of Georgia in 1982, lead guitarist Michael Houser started the jam band Widespread Panic with John Bell. Named after Houser's once-frequent panic attacks, the band recorded seven studio albums with Capricorn over the next 11 years. Houser wrote many of band's most popular songs, including "Porch Song," "Airplane," "Ain't Life Grand, " "Blue Indian" and "Vacation." He died on August 10, 2002, at age 40, from pancreatic cancer.




RIP Mikey

By far the best part of WSP. His tone and playing on Space Wrangler is awesome. So much better than Jimmy Herring.

RIP. frick cancer.

One of my favorites of all time. He may not have been the most skilled but he had a way of making that guitar cry in such a unique way.

RIP Mikey

He died on my birthday. I tried to keep my love panic alive since but it never was the same without him. Jimmy sucks. There. I've said it.

Have an upvote.

Pretty much forced me to grow up when he died. I was still traveling hardcore at 27.
