Hooves Announce Phoenix Tour Stop

When we last touched base with Hooves, they were splitting town, cramming into the Bikini Lounge for a goodbye celebration before heading to Washington. I noted "...we can take comfort in knowing they'll be back to visit. It'll be "Party Time" then, but it's hard to imagine it all feeling...

When we last touched base with Hooves, they were splitting town, cramming into the Bikini Lounge for a goodbye celebration before heading to Washington. I noted "...we can take comfort in knowing they'll be back to visit. It'll be "Party Time" then, but it's hard to imagine it all feeling and sounding this good again." Looks like we'll all find out soon enough.

The rock 'n' rollers have announced a slew of tour dates, which finds them headed our way on Friday, March 16 at Crescent Ballroom, as well as making a stop at Austin's SxSW festival. The band will have a new record, Fetch Little Doggie (we debuted a demo of the track "Gallows" back in August).

Listen to another song from the record, the twinkling, rustic "No Use for Dying" after the break.

Hooves are scheduled to perform Friday, March 16, with Colorstore and Black Carl at the Crescent Ballroom.
