hooky

Balancing hooky dance-rock with more experimental forays into electronica and even ambient music, they pepper their lyrics with references to online relationships, chemical dependency and wry, self-aware humour.

“But I was like, I think people love when you do that because it’s weird and funny and hooky. It makes you remember the song more because it’s not correct.”

“I just tried to think, what's really hooky and what would be fun to sing with a crowd. Those were my parameters.”

Supposedly playing hooky from filming a movie, he visits the walrus diorama at the Natural History Museum.

He developed a sound mixing folk, classic rock, blues and hooky pop, and signed to local independent label Beserkley Records to release his first album in 1976.
