what is HAGS all about????
Hailing from Eatontown, NJ, Have a Good Season emerges as a dynamic power trio that seamlessly blends the raw energy of 90’s college rock, the infectious hooks of vintage power pop, and the emotional depth of midwest emo.
The band's signature sound is a result of the rhythmic interplay between Daniel Stattner on bass and Dan Sakumoto on drums, creating a foundation that intricately pushes and pulls, leaving ample space for Nic Palermo's guitar and vocals to weave a tapestry of rich, open chords and melodic lead playing.
What sets Have a Good Season apart is their meticulous and detail-oriented approach to music creation. The rhythm section's intricate motion provides the perfect backdrop for Palermo's nostalgic lyricism. The band's ability to draw inspiration from their influences while infusing fresh ideas into their songcraft allows them to carve a unique space in the contemporary music scene.
