SXSW 2005 Showcasing Artists

Hitch
Genre: Rock Hometown: Kortrijk BELGIUM
www.hitch.be
From zero to hero, or at least on their way from one point to the other: Belgians Hitch make music devoid of ‘the Disney’, in the vein of bands like Fugazi, Unwound, Jawbox and Barkmarket. Their latest effort “Trails are Ablaze!” (Kinky star Records) was released under raving reviews only and brings the band to Canada and the U.S.(for the second time) in search of solid stages and a States-side release for their latest album. Bring a fan to the show. You’ll need one!

"Still wearing on their sleeves the influences of the legends of this genre - Fugazi, Drive Like Jehu, At The Drive-In - Hitch succeed at producing a set of songs that display the band's own uniqueness as much as their roots and inspirations." (on 'Trails are ablaze!' > www.punkinternational.com)
