The Suspects is a name shared by two different bands: 1.) A 3rd-wave ska band from Houston, Texas. The Suspects formed in early 1993 when Bill Grady and Charlie Esparza met via the bulletin board at the old Westheimer location of Sound Exchange Records. Other members of the band were slowly recruited, and The Suspects played their first show on October 3rd 1993 at the now defunct Hoi Polloi club on White Oak Drive in Houston.
