Bootleg: Hounds in the press

The Hounds got some exposure in the local press. The Bootleg Mag has listings of local goings on with spotlights on local artists. A couple of weeks ago one of the writers came out to our weekly practice to interview us. She wanted to know about our musical influences, music writing process, etc. I think a lot of what was said got left on the cutting room floor, but I think the gist is there: Chicago-style blues with some influence from Louisiana. Some of the comments about music writing got left out but that might be because the Hounds don't really have a process per se. Rather, it just comes to our two main writers, the guitar players. Anyway, read the "Black magic blues" article to get the gist if it's difficult to make out in the image I composed from the web page. (In retrospect I guess we should have provided some gig pics rather than letting her use the one from our practice area: a living room :)
