The Heligoats SUPER-EPISODE! 20+ songs from The Heligoats, Hemora & the glass band, Hungry Mountain and even a couple Troubled Hubble covers and a bunch of joking around!

The guys put together a 10 year anniversary live album and video recording show for the goodness gracious album and invited a hand full of people to attend and celebrate, I drove from Dallas to Batavia (15 hours) and recorded the warm up jam the night before, and drank long island ice teas in a can and a number of Pabst Blue Ribbons. We joke around and they play some tunes. Then I drove back to Dallas (another 15 hours) I present this to you in its raw format and I invite you to listen like a fly on the wall.

The Heligoats started in 1999 as the primary songwriting outlet for Chris Otepka. Featured on NPR’s Tiny Desk as the 100th performer, Chris has also accumulated time and acclaim as a member of Troubled Hubble (Lookout! Records), Hemhora & The Glass Band as well as a brief stint in Clem Snide. The Heligoats have teamed with the Glass Band for their latest release and are on tour playing songs spanning the past ten years.
