Sad news. In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, The Voice season 11 winner Sundance Head has lost the Texas home that he shared with his family. His father, 60’s R&B singer Roy Head also lived in the house and suffered substantial losses. From the Montgomery County Police Reporter
River Ridge is a small subdivision that sits south of Porter along the San Jacinto River. As the gates opened at the Lake Conroe dam , 79,000 cubic feet per second of water was released. It wasn’t long before the surge of water rushed through Porter. Out of its banks the powerful river almost wiped out the subdivision. Sundance Head, who lives just across the road is currently out of town on a U.S. Air Force Tour. His wife Misty arrived home just before the storm planning on getting ready for the week ahead. She hadn’t seen any news and did not know about Harvey. That changed as neighbors started talking about it. Soon after their 2-story home had 6-feet of water through the second floor. All of Sundance Head’s tapes and recordings were gone. His father Roy Head also lost most of his recordings and awards dating back into the early 70’s. Roy Head and his wife arrived at the home Wednesday afternoon torn by the damage but grateful for the volunteers with Rebuild South Texas.org.
In the video below, Misty recounts having only a few hours to secure their belongings. The water rose higher than expected, and they lost personal belongings anyway. Memorabilia from Sundance’s days on The Voice was destroyed as well. Roy Head is also interviewed in this clip. Sundance is currently away on an Air Force tour. He wanted to come home, but Missy insisted there wasn’t much he could do.
Here’s a shot of the inside of the house:
