About the band... Hello June first came onto the scene in 2017 with their EP Spruce. From that EP, "Dance" was featured by NPR Music's Heavy Rotation and was played on radio stations across the US. In 2018, Hello June was featured as an NPR Slingshot Artist, alongside Phoebe Bridgers, Snail Mail, Mt. Joy, Jade Bird, and 2017 Slingshot Artist, Big Thief. NPR Music premiered their leading single, "Mars," and the band received glowing praise from both local and national press alike (Paste Magazine, Atwood Magazine, WV Living). Currently, the band is recording their second album in Nashville Tennessee with Roger Alan Nichols (Belltone Recording).  The band is set to release a single in 2023 - their first, in nearly 4 years.
