The Hooten Hallers (Missouri, USA)

“When the Hooten Hallers come to town, you KNOW it’s gonna be a party!”
“Hard, dirty, rhythm and blues! With elements of blues, country and punk, they put on a great show that leaves us clamouring for more!” (Moshville, UK)
Columbia, Missouri trio The Hooten Hallers are a high-energy blues-rock band known for hard-traveling and wild live shows, with a seemingly endless tour schedule. The myriad of influences in their music incorporates elements of rhythm & blues, rock’n’roll, honky tonk, jazz, soul, and punk with a thematic penchant for the strange and the unexplained. Their live shows take the listener on a seamless ride from unapologetically raucous blues on the lap steel and bass sax, to a sweet three part harmony country ballad, to a romping dance number.
Listeners often detect hints of George Thorogood, Morphine, and Tom Waits, but anyone who has seen The Hooten Hallers live knows that this power trio is unlike anything they’ve experienced before!
“Their ‘hillbilly soul band’ may be around for a while! An eclectic mix of blues, country, punk and just enough horns to bring out the rockabilly!” (New Noise)
Plus support from HARRY & THE HOUNDS
"Young faces with old souls. Harry & The Hounds draw influence from the glory days of Rock n Roll. Fusing likes of Stray Cats, Elvis Presley and Johnny Burnette with modern twists and new ideas seen by artists like JD Mcpherson.”
