“MOKB Presents and the HI-FI have been very good to our band from the start having booked us as support on several shows and festivals; and annually supporting our yearly headlining shows in Fountain Square. The show in April is a tip of the hat to all of those who have been so gracious to The Easthills on our albums, for our shows and from our hometown and everywhere in between. It’s a chance to stop and celebrate. It’s going to be fun.”, said Hank Campbell of The Easthills.
