Mike and the Moonpies have added new tour dates to their itinerary as they hit the road in support of their new album 'One To Grow On.' This fall, the band will criss-cross the US including an official showcase at Americanafest in Nashville, TN in September along with stops in Milwaukee, WI; Kansas City, MO; Lexington, KY; Indianapolis, IN; Dallas, TX and many more. Looking ahead to 2022, Mike and the Moonpies will head overseas for a 17-city tour kicking off in London, UK with additional performances in Switzerland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, and Germany.
Produced by Adam Odor and recorded at yellow DOG Studios in Wimberley, TX, 'One To Grow On' was co-written by frontman Mike Harmeier and Odor and includes guest appearances from members of Quaker City Nighthawks, Shooter Jennings, Shiny Soul Sisters and Zac Wilkerson. Unlike the band's previous recordings, this is the first time an album has been centered around a character to form a linear story. Sonically, the band experiments with earthy, rootsier tones; twin guitars and big acoustic rhythms along with unexpected arrangements and melody choices that complement the character's narrative.
Drawing influence from 90s country twang and the bluesy, boogie rhythms of 70s Southern rock, 'One To Grown On' still maintains the band's signature hip-shaking, honky tonk swagger guided by piercing steel guitar, sharp storytelling and Harmeier's soul-stirring vocals. Check out their current single "Paycheck To Paycheck" here. The nine-song collection is available now on all streaming platforms.
Mike and the Moonpies, which includes Mike Harmeier (vocals, guitar); Zachary Moulton (steel guitar); Omar Oyoque (bass); Kyle Ponder (drums) and Catlin Rutherford (guitar), are coming off a remarkable run of career-best reviews and chart action for their past two albums 'Cheap Silver and Solid Country Gold' and 'Touch of You - The Lost Songs Of Gary Stewart.' The band has reaped consistent critical praise from national and international press and radio outlets such as NPR, Rolling Stone Country, Sirius XM, BBC and more.
