California plug-in-and-play band Greg Hoy & the Boys are touring support of their new single ‘Holy Mother of God’ and last year's vinyl LP 'Yay For Effort'. They'll be performing songs from Greg's whole catalog - including their EPs ‘Extra Effort' with remixes by J. Robbins, Ariel Levine, and more, and 'Enjoy the View' recorded by Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies) and mixed by Sylvia Massy (Tool, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty) - as well as 2020's 'Cacophony' LP recorded socially distanced and in secret to 2 inch tape during the pandemic at Tiny Telephone, Oakland.
Divide & Conquor says 'Live, Hoy is like Jack White AND Jack Black rolled into one... I was addicted the first time I heard it' The Big Takeover says 'Drop the needle anywhere on his LPs and you're greeted with Hoy's crunchy, meaty, dirt discharging guitars & swaggering Mick Jagger/David Johansen-like growl. Hoy's boys kick out plenty of 70's punk & rnb-inspired jams.' Red Red Wine on a Sunday says 'Hoy's records are deep - like peeling layers off an onion - each song is a revelation!' And Melody Maker says 'Hoy is at home with surprising listeners: be grateful for it.'
