Hoover Music History

Hoover Music Company Inc. was established in 1912 by H.L. Hoover and is still under the proprietorship of the same family four generations later!

H.L. Hoover was the first person to graduate from Drury College with a bachelor's degree in piano performance. After graduation, H.L. Hoover started Little Hoover's Big Band, which entertained Southwest Missouri for over twenty years. He also directed the Shriner's Band, and, in 1912, started Hoover Music Company.

We are proud to carry on his legacy through the newly revived, "Little Hoover's Big Band."
