The opening track on Houndmouth’s debut won us over earlier this spring, but it turns out their charm is far from limited to “On The Road.” Team Coco is streaming the set now, including early standout “Come On, Illinois.” “It’s a long way just to make it to the borderline,” sings Matt Myers on the refrain — a simple gesture, perhaps, yet aptly glorious in light of how far the New Albany, Indiana quartet has come in recent months. Hear that cut in studio form with the rest of the record at the Conan link or below and watch them perform an excellent album-faithful take above.
