The CD has been receiving some great early reviews: "Hounds Tooth is no longer under the radar. Their new CD, Soul Rockin, will push this band into the fast lane of the blues world, keep your eye on these guys!" - Scott Gregory, Entertainment Director, River City Blues Society. Hounds Tooth will tour throughout the Midwest during summer in support of their new CD playing festivals and some of the top blues rooms. "In a mostly live recording, the band does 7 originals out of ten tunes in real journeymen style. Rockin’ stuff with fine playing, good vocals and a good sense of how much is enough. They throw down with tunes that nod to Slim Harpo, George Thorogood, Robben Ford, and Freddy King…and rock it up while they’re at it. Adept and fun. Genuwine dancin’ stuff. Not for Morning Mix." - Cathi N. - WFHB 91.3 FM Bloomington, Indiana. Hounds Tooth is a member of the Grafton Blues Association and WAMI.
