Lead singer Robbie Kingsely says of the album, “The process for this record was a way for us to tap back into our roots. We made a rental house in South Florida feel and sound like our college house that birthed our first… Read more »
The Hails are tackling a major issue on their new track “Ducks On The Pond.” That issue? Online gambling. From mobile sports betting apps to prediction markets, people are getting dopamine hits from playing on their phones and avoiding the casino entirely…sigh.
