Work continues on the new release.  After our initial tracking dates, we returned to Howl Street for overdub sessions.  We then accepted the challenge of recording additional overdubs in the comforts of Riz's living room and began mixing in February.  A few more overdubs and a final mix session in March should put us where we need to be for a late-spring/early-summer release date.  Hopefully, we'll be able to lock in some dates and gigs soon.
Chris Head and the Honchos is going back in the studio!  November 7-10 we start tracking our second album with Shane Hochstetler at Howl Street Recording.  Shane worked with us on Hard Truths, and we couldn't be more excited about capturing some of our newer material.  More updates to come.
Chris is flattered to be included in the Summer 2014 edition of Stritch Magazine.  This new web edition of the publication recognizes alumni, staff, and students of Cardinal Stritch University who have distinguished themselves through their musical accomplishments.  Pop on over and see what Chris has to say about his influences, favorite musical moments, and other topics:  http://www.stritch.edu/Magazine/Summer-2014/Chris-Head/.
Tune in to the Chicken Shack on WMSE, 89.7, or online.  Hard Truths has been getting some spins there the last couple of weeks.  Thanks for the radio love.
Big thanks go out to WBSD and Studio Winery for featuring us in the Sunday Originals series and for spinning Hard Truths.
Congratulations to Unclear on the Concept for winning the Battle for Catalano.  Have fun at Summerfest, fellas.  Hopefully, we'll meet again someday.

We are pleased to announce that we have survived the first round of the Battle for Catalano band competition, in which area bands vie for a Summerfest gig along with recording time and a photo shoot.  The next round will be in April, and we'll let you know the exact details once they're set.  Make plans to head down to Club Charlies and cheer us on.
