THE MOTHER HIPS
San Francisco, CA: The Mother Hips are back with a new album, When We Disappear, a compelling new studio album released January 27, 2023 on Blue Rose. Based in Northern California, the Hips headed to New Mexico, spending time at Ghost Ranch before settling in at Jono Manson's Kitchen Sink studio in Sante Fe in late 2021 for the sessions. Self-produced, When We Disappear features nine new tracks co-written by co-founders Tim Bluhm and Greg Loiacono — a collection of lit-psych rock songs Inspired by psychology and literature — as well as a raw, garagey cover of Buffy St. Marie’s 1964 addiction song “Codine.”

Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as “one of the Bay Area’s most beloved live outfits,” The Mother Hips' headline and festival performances have became the stuff of legend, finding them sharing stages with everyone from Johnny Cash and Wilco to Lucinda Williams and The Black Crowes. Rolling Stone called the band “divinely inspired,” while Pitchfork praised their “rootsy mix of 70’s rock and power pop,” and The New Yorker lauded their ability to “sing it sweet and play it dirty.”

CASUAL COUNTRY
The Casual Coalition country off-shoot performs high-energy outlaw, classic & unexpected country songs guaranteed to get you dancing.  Along with performing some of country's greatest songs, the band also explore deeper cuts that are often overlooked by the mainstream but carry the same excellence in songwriting.  A few new original country songs have emerged as well, making their way into the sets each night!
