The Hemmer Ridge Mountain Boys are remembered for their integral role as a backing band during Townes Van Zandt's mid-1970s Rocky Mountain tours. While they never released a standalone studio album under this name, the group contributed to Townes’s touring era and related projects, earning a place in Townes Van Zandt’s storied history. Core members included Rex “Wrecks” Bell (bass) and Mickey White (lead guitar), with the band occasionally backing other artists in related performances.
