The Countdown

Just a few more weeks until the new disc, Then There’s Now, hits the streets and the new band hits the road. I just did a “test run” of the new lineup at Fat Fest in Minnesota . The show was great and I think the band is going to make some waves. The festival was very rainy, but was still a great time. We got to hang with our friends in Family Groove Company and they styled us out with some gear to use. That was especially cool of them because the stage was getting dumped on and I am pretty sure most everything got drenched. Festivals in the summer, gotta love it.

So this Midwest run is coming up soon and it’s going to be a blast. My band (KHB) is going out with a Colorado band called Euforquestra. If you have not seen them yet check them out. I am looking forward to a lot of great music and hopefully some collaboration. They will also be with us at my CD release party at the Fox Theatre, Saturday, September 19th. That is sure to be off the hook!

I am also excited about the first taste of the “Hoppingsworth IPA”. This is the brew I made with the Mountain Sun Brewery folks in Boulder. There is going to be a “tasting and listening party” at the Southern Sun on Monday, September 14th at 6pm . We will spin the disc, tap Hoppingsworth IPA for the first time, and we will have the new album available for sale one day before the national release. Come on out! I also made some cool pint glasses we can all drink from!

So there is a bunch of stuff happening soon. It is going to be a busy couple weeks. I hope to see you all out there. You can keep informed at my website kylehollingsworth.com.

Cheers!

P.S. I made a short video of “brew day” at the Mountain Sun
