The members of ZZ Top -- Billy F. Gibbons, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard -- issued a statement on the flooding in city they continue to call home.
It says, “Houston has played host to ZZ Top as our home base since we first banded together more than four decades ago, making us especially concerned with the plight of so many of our fellow Texans in the wake of the flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey. We are encouraged by the city's and state's recovery efforts from this tragic event and stand alongside our neighbors. Long ago, we recorded a song called 'Heaven, Hell or Houston.' We’re confident that, in the near future, the first word will describe the title's third word and the the middle will soon be overcome.”
- Though all three members are from Texas, singer-guitarist Billy F. Gibbons is the only one who was actually born in Houston.
