The Hoof & The Heel


NXNE, the Canadian version of SXSW, is underway at the moment, and among the many bands performing this week is the indie-folk-electro group The Hoof & The Heel. Their debut EP, And All The Tigers, contains numbers like "Fireworks" that bombard and energize like Florence and the Machine, with vociferous drums and seesawing synths flaring about. It also has more relaxed tracks featuring perky folk-pop and acoustic guitar slowjams, showing great potential for future albums to come. For those of you at NXNE, the band will be performing 10pm tomorrow night at the Drake Underground and I highly recommended that you check them out.
