The Rolling Happy Hour went all After Dark at Armadillo Den on August 12, 2021. Thanks to Audic Empire, Urban Heat and Daddy Nat for a great show. And as always thanks to our partners at 3rd & Lamar for putting on the show with us (and for the sweet photo above)....
A couple weeks ago, we debuted the Rolling Happy Hour at Waterloo Records with Gordy Quist of Band of Heathens and Ricky Ray Jackson of The Tender Things. The show was a blast, and now you can watch the full video below. We're working on the next shows and have a ton...
