Huron is a Canadian rock band formed in January 2008 from Hamilton, Ontario. Members include Aaron Goldstein, known for his session work with such bands as Cowboy Junkies, and Cam Malcolm, who was previously in the band Sweet Homewreckers. Drummer Pete Hall was also a founding member of A Northern Chorus. The band worked with record producer Ian Blurton for their debut album, which was released on Latent Recordings in March 2010.
Writing about the debut self-titled album, critic Vish Khanna said the music "is rooted in country tones, but stands apart because of its unique amalgamation of rock riffage and pop finesse." In a positive review, Graham Rockingham called it "[k]ing-size riff rock with a rootsy edge from a Hamilton band that's screaming to be heard."
