Troupe of Very Remarkable Trained Pigs: Live in Walla Walla, WA, February 26, 2022

ridethewaveyall This live recording from Billsville West is as lightweight as it is grounded in that searing authenticity so characteristic of Hiss. For anyone as sentimental as I am for the collective creativity that births things like house shows, this is a rare refreshment from a band unafraid of standing at eye-level with their audience.

Favorite track: Harder Rain.

narvikwinter As a Walla Walla native, this is really, really special. One of my favorite bands in my favorite small town of the Pacific NW: a place I am so lucky to call home. Favorite track: Saturday's Song.

50 Feet of Song These cool hams really can jam!

James Mahoehney Have you ever imagined what it would be like if Hiss played in your living room? I know I have! And now I don't have to imagine anymore. The band's groove is intimate in this stripped down format. I love it, and I love the first live recording of Harder Rain (at least that I am aware of). The only thing missing in my opinion is Nick playing the spoons. Thank you guys! Favorite track: Harder Rain.

Brian What a delight, and aptly in time for Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for this place where folks can gather in our little town and have a kind "church", full of community and laughter and music. Also, this just flat out rocks, too.
