Tiger Hatchery's first full-length LP "Sun Worship" coming soon on ESP-Disk', Available November 19th!










      In the summer of 2013 all our hard work and networking paid off when the name Tiger Hatchery finally reached the ears of the historic record label ESP-Disk'.  They merely inquired via email about the band and we greeted them with a mixed, mastered, ready-for-pressing full-length LP.  Based on the integrity of the artwork the legendary label agreed to release the album.  Since the arrival of this exciting news we have made plans to further extend our tour routes and bring this psychedelic sound experience to all who seek it.

Suoni Per Il Popolo 2013




      In June of 2013 we were asked to perform at the prestigious Canadian music festival Suoni Per il Popolo along side our Michigander friends Stare Case.  This was our first international venture. We all got across the border just fine...



      Saturday June 22, 2013 Here's a video of our triumphant return to the USA! Detroit, MI to be exact...


     




      Check out this video of Stare Case from that same Detroit summer night.



   

On the Road to VOV 2012




      In August of 2012 we were asked to play the Voice of the Valley festival in West Virginia.    Why not add a week or two of shows and make it a tour?



      Monday August 13, 2012 This is a video from a short lived venue in Brooklyn, NY called Big Snow Buffalo Lodge.  Glad we got to jam there at least once.







      And here's one from the very next night August 14 in Philadelphia at a great art gallery called Pageant Soloveev.



Tiger Hatchery Does America 2011!!!




      In the Spring of 2011 we took on the entire USA! From sea to shining with a top coat of crude oil sea...  clocked in at about 10,000 miles total, all within about a months time.  So... much... driving...


      Monday May 30, 2011 Here's a video from our time down in Texas.  This video was shot in the town where Forbes and Young met.

      ...ladies and gentlemen...   Denton, TX

The light of day...




      Tiger Hatchery is almost always found in the darkest places of the underground but every now and then we get asked to play for the daylight...


      Saturday June 12, 2010 we had the extreme privilage of opening for Matmos and So Percussion at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.
