Let’s Get Naked: Hiahli

Hiahli is a live hip-hop band that plays rock n roll instruments. The high-octane MC, Cold Sweat, delivers his Golden-Age Hip-Hop style over a variety of musical stylings. In addition to the usual fatback rhythms, you may hear some undercurrents of outlaw country, disco, and funk. The group weaves a tapestry of sound taking the listener through grungy, boom bap beats that inspire good times. And, always, a trip to the moon.

“Let’s Get Naked” is a music series featuring four local bands stripping down their sound for an unplugged night of acoustic music in the taproom. This series includes performances from Hiahli, Treo’Soul, Walking Phoenix, and The Jensen Sisters. Each band will be playing at 7:30 pm on their scheduled night.

The goal of this series is to offer talented local musicians an opportunity to share their music through an intimate, acoustic medium rather than a fully amplified, big-band sound. Stripping down the sound and playing acoustically creates a raw energy that highlights a player’s true talents. There’s no hiding any flaws behind a wall of noise and effects when you’re standing naked on stage. It’s just the player and their instrument.

We’re really excited to have this series in the taproom and to collaborate with local artists. “Let’s Get Naked!”
