Aftershock 2019: The Hu

The Hu
The Hu, Aftershock 2019
Perhaps the most unusual - and global - performance at Aftershock festival in Sacramento, California, this year happened on the smaller Coors Capital stage, by a band from Mongolia. The Hu combine traditional folk instruments such as the morin khuur, flute and tsuur and Mongolian vocal style ("throat singing") with heavy metal.

Currently on tour in the USA - including another date in Sacramento, at Holy Diver, on November 30th (if you had instead headed to another stage at Aftershock and missed the set, this is a new opportunity - grab it!!!). The tour is extensive, with dates around the USA: see if you can catch a show, you will not be disappointed.
