Ten Hands is a rock band based in Denton, Texas, United States. The band consists of:
Described as a cross between the jazz-rock-art style of Frank Zappa and the psychedelic punk of the Meat Puppets, Ten Hands had a style that was better appreciated live, more so than in the studio. The late 1980s local scene adored them and the Dallas Observer awarded Ten Hands numerous accolades in 1988-1989.
The band play regularly mid 1980s through 1995 and began playing regular show again in 2014. Ten Hands continues to play, with various lineups, several times a year in the Dallas area.
