Jenny Hoyston

Jenny Hoyston is the vocalist, guitarist, and trumpeter of the San Francisco, CA, USA political punk and no wave band Erase Errata and the Houston, TX damaged funk and psych band Vacation Eyes. She also works as a solo artist and with William Elliott Whitmore under the monikers Paradise Island and Hallways of Always respectively.

Hoyston began her road and recording career in 1994 as the bassist and back-up vocalist for Michigan-based all-Women punk band day twenty-eight and appears on PEEP, the 1995 Youth Rendition Records release by the band.

After relocating to San Francisco, Hoyston formed noise-rock duo California Lightening with future Erase Errata drummer Bianca Sparta in 1997. California Lightening released singles on Troubleman Unlimited and Sound on Sound and appeared on releases by Mr. Lady Records and other labels. The band released a split 7" with fellow San Franciscan band Sic. Alps, gaining attention partially as a result of scandal over fully nude images of members of both bands on the record's artwork.

In 1999 Hoyston joined Darkwave quintet Subtonix (Troubleman Records) and appears on one 7" release by the all-Women band. Later that same year she formed Erase Errata with Sara Jaffe, Ellie Erickson and Sparta after an impromptu jam session at Club Hott, the all-ages showspace/warehouse Hoyston and Sparta inhabited with Seth Bogart (Gravy Train, Hunx & His Punks, Wacky Wacko) and Luis Illades (Panzy Division, Avengers). Other Erase Errata members have included Christina Files, Weasel Walter, Eric Bauer, and Archie McKay. Erase Errata toured the U.S., Europe, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. Their most recent release was the Lost Weekend (2015) on their own label Under The Sun and the band played a string of dates in 2015 with Hannah Blilie of The Gossip and Lisa Schonberg (Explode Into Colors, Thao & the Get Down Stay Down) on double-drums and Mlee Marie of Houston-based Hearts of Animals on saxophone.
