Hoops announce second LP with lead single "Fall Back"
Hoops are back with details of their second album Halo, and have released the lead single "Fall Back".
"Fall Back" is the group's first new single since ending their hiatus in November 2019 with "They Say", which will also feature on Hoops' Halo album.
Halo will be Hoops' second album, following on from their 2017 debut Routines. Hoops' Kevin Krauter says of their break, "I think we had lost a lot of steam. Hoops wasn’t moving forward organically. It was being dragged along."
The band recorded Halo at Bloomington's Russian Studio with producer Ben Lumsdaine between September 2019 and March 2020.
Drew Auscherman says of their new album, "This record is a more honest representation of our influences and interests as musicians. We’ve grown a lot in four years, as people and as listeners. We’re starting to sound more like ourselves."
