HIO on The Violitionist Sessions

Back in April, HIO went up to Denton to record three lengthy extemporizations in the home studio of Gutterth Productions honcho Michael Briggs, who makes a mean cup of coffee and has a very nice cat and birds, the latter of whom make a guest appearance on one of the tracks. (Look at the titles and guess which one.)

Afterward, we adjourned to Hooligans Pub on the courthouse square for drinkie-talkie, and encountered Big Rig Dance Collective for the first time. All in all, an auspicious day for HIO -- maybe the most since we recorded for Jeff Liles in the Green Room at the Kessler.
