BIO

Hooks & The Huckleberries are on a hellbent tear to greatness. Their cross-genre concoction of Americana, Country, and fierce roots rock delivers fans a soulful, magnetic, and boot-stomping good time. Fabled frontman and rebel son-of-a-preacher, Adam Hooks leads the group from the gritty high deserts of New Mexico. The band’s poetic performances have earned them reverence from a growing and eclectic fanbase through relentless efforts on the road.

Their eagerly-awaited second album, ‘For the Love of Whatever,' emerged from mastermind producer, Matt Pence's (Jason Isbell, Nikki Lane) Echo Lab studio in Denton, Texas. This new collection of songs has the band exploring emotive sonic depths of striking songwriting, driven by Hooks' lyrical prowess and lead guitarist Joshua Lee's virtuosic blend of roots guitar styles infused with space-age sounds and dreamlike textures. The stage-shaking rhythm section, led by drummer Dustin Hoag, brings a level of raw energy and excitement that elevates every track.

"This classic composition embraces new stylistic movements in the sonic arrangement. It’s as if Explosions of the Sky collaborated with Jason Isbell. "
