Artist On The Rise: Houndmouth
Gritty stories of american reality and traveling are some of the folk themes that you will hear listening Houndmouth. This quartet of blues, roots, and rock n roll is from New Albany, Indiana, which is just on the other side of the river from Louisville, Kentucky. All members play a role singing vocals along with playing lead guitar, bass, drums, and keys. Three young fun guys, and a mesmerizing female make up the energetic group. They were signed to Rough Trade Records after performing at SXSW in 2012. They just released their new album this year, ‘Little Neon Moonlight‘, which follows up their debut album from 2013, ‘From The Hills Below The City‘.
They have certainly made a name for themselves opening up for Drive-By Truckers, The Lumineers, and The Alabama Shakes. They have also proved them self at the big boy’s festivals performing ACL, Americana Music Festival, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Newport Folk Festival. You can catch them at SXSW, Hangout Music Festival, Bonnaroo, Arts and Music Festival, and Forecastle Festival in 2015!
