The Hooten Hallers Mix Americana and Punk on New Single, "Dig"

(Press Release) In the olden days of American music, before radios, television, highways, and the internet homogenized everything, regional styles and traditions reigned. And yet, the rich regionalism of America continues today, fighting against the Walmart-ization of American culture. Columbia, MO trio  The Hooten Hallers  are out front of this charge, reclaiming the heritage of their Missouri roots. With their new self-titled album (to be released  April 21, 2017 on Big Muddy Records), they continue their decade-long search for these roots, drawing from the surrounding agricultural lifestyles, the river communities, the college kids and the tweakers that roam Columbia, Missouri, all in the looming foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Other bands would have jumped ship for a metropolitan city long ago, but there’s a sense of pride in these stubborn personalities that tie The Hooten Hallers inextricably to their place. Their regional foundation inspires their music, from pre-war blues to New York Dolls-inspired punk rock to Legendary Shack Shakers-esque Americana Gothic, all of it tying them to the Missouri river and the new regional traditions being made every day. As they say in Missouri, it’s not quite the Midwest and it’s not quite the South. In the same vein, the Hooten Hallers’ music isn’t quite Americana and it’s not quite punk, but a bit of both, fused together in a drunken tangle.

PureVolume  has the  newest track   from The Hooten Hallers, "Dig", [which] features gravelly voiced singer John Randall powering the song with his unique sound and bone crunching guitar, while Andy Rehm's drums thump and romp throughout the three-minute track."  For more information visit HERE.
