A few weeks back, I contributed to a piece for
Consequence of Sound that compiled stories from staff writers about the longest distances we’ve traveled for a concert. I wrote about Nashville band
Humming House. Granted, my friend Ben is the bassist, but my honest feeling is this: Even if he weren’t a pal, I’d still want to see their shows. Humming House plays Americana with Irish folk influences. They have a real knack for the kinds of warm, upbeat songs that can draw an audience into an all-out sing along.
What I’m working up to here, is that
they’ve launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a second album. Check out the video below, which includes some of their credentials such as love from NPR and
American Songwriter Magazine. They also had a song placed on season four of the FX series
Justified, to list a few accomplishments.
These days bands with Kickstarters are multiplying like rabbits, but Humming House is solid bet. If you decide to throw a few bucks their way, you can know it’ll be used well.
Anyway,
take a spin through some of their incentives, like a digital version, T-shirts, signed copies of the album and so on, or head on over to
Noisetrade where the band’s first album is on offer for free and get convinced.
