What:
You were there for the Grand Opening of Humbrews’ event room with the Mother Hips…It only makes sense to celebrate with them again on our 2 year anniversary with 2 nights, and 2 sets each night! There will be individual tickets available for 1 night ($20) and special combo tickets for both nights, at a special price ($30), if you choose to attend both shows…
The Hips - led by co-founders Tim Bluhm (vocals/guitar) and Greg Loiacono (guitar/vocals) - have been playing music for nearly 18 years, and in the process, have had the luxury of exploring and refining their craft. For the band’s seventh full-length studio album, The Mother Hips have never been more primed to share their well-traveled tales - the long days and nights on the road, the gritty politics, the smart inward reflections and man, the music! - all delivered with a most appealing balance of Americana storytelling and their California-burnished rock.
