Band history
Valley Lodge came together when John Kimbrough, former singer-guitarist for Minnesota power pop band Walt Mink, met up with comedian/musician Dave Hill (formerly a member of bands such as Cobra Verde, and Sons of Elvis) to compare the home demos they were working on.
Joined by bass player/singer Phil Costello (Satanicide), and drummer Rob Pfeiffer (Sense Field) and inspired by bands such as Cheap Trick, Raspberries, Thin Lizzy and Big Star they released their eponymous debut in 2005. The album proved particularly popular in Japan even getting a re-release with bonus tracks in 2008. The band went on to tour there in March 2009.
The band released their second album, Semester at Sea, on April 21, 2009, containing 10 new songs by the band and a cover of Bob Welch's '70s hit, "Sentimental Lady".
Valley Lodge's songs "Over It" and "All of My Loving" were featured in the recent episodes of the sitcom "Cougar Town." The band's song "Coming Around" was also featured on the sitcom "Raising Hope." And their song "The Door" was used in a commercial for the GMC Sierra truck. "All of My Loving" is the theme song for Dave Hill's podcast, Dave Hill's Podcasting Incident.
Recently, "All of My Loving" was also featured on a Sonic commercial for their hot dogs.
