SPB: What is the most valuable thing you’ve lost on a tour?

Morgan: Mostly we lose things like phone chargers and sunglasses, shirts and t-shirts, crap like that…I guess you could say we’ve all lost our wide-eyed innocence on the road…SIGH…

We have lost 2 drum seats and one drum kick pedal over the years.

Mike: On our last tour I left my only coat in Virginia two days before it started snowing. Luckily I was able to find a ridiculously cheap one (likely made by the Camorra or the Triads or something) before long, but otherwise I'd have frozen to death in Kentucky.

Floating Now
Asian Man Records / Specialist Subject Records (2017)

Hard Girls are a complex band – or maybe they’re not. They sing about hard life choices, serious moments, and buying candy and cigarettes. A post-punk influence and precise arrangement style seamlessly blend into a more traditional pop structure. At its simplest definition they’re a punk band, but that doesn’t feel like it hits at the fact that both vocalists … Read more
