The Hillties  (Craig Beauchamp & Sam Matthews)

The Hillties are a 6 piece funk/rock/reggae/jam band from Nelson BC.  They are about to release their new album titled Sunshine on April 20.  To celebrate the release of the album there was a tour booked across British Columbia and Alberta, but in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic, the tour has been cancelled.
