HOODY TIME

-------------------

Hoody Time is a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist based in Nelson, New Zealand. Hoody began in Cincinnati, USA holding DJ residencies at top clubs and providing midwest support on many national tours including support for twenty one pilots, Tory Lanez, Krewella, AWOLNATION, and many more.

After a few years of recording and performing in the US, Hoody took his operation to New Zealand in 2017 completing 3 nation-wide tours to date including sets at several summer festivals (Bay Dreams, Mudtopia, MarchFest, Nelson City NYE) and notable performances with DJ Sliink, Savage, Jason Kerrison, Madchild & P-Money.

Hoody’s 2018 releases climbed the NZ iTunes charts (including a #1 debut with “Pucho” and a #3 with “Paris”), charted worldwide on Beatport (USA) and Clubtone (RUS) (“Now We Go Deep” reached #1 on both) and held placement on numerous Spotify playlists (Fresh Electronic, New Music Fridays).

Hoody pledged "ALL BANGERS, ALL 2019" and he certainly made good on that promise, landing releases on Spotify’s “The Drip” playlist as well as gaining continued support from Canadian mega-blog MONTREALITY and New Zealand’s biggest online publication, Stuff.

Hoody’s 2020 has taken a big creative upturn with the release of “Lost + Found”, a pop-punk influenced double-single, and the launch of a collaboration project with live-looping guitarist Bosho (reggae/psych/rock influence). The collaboration has already seen tremendous success with “TRUTH”, the debut single and video, which has clocked nearly 200,000 views and has caught the attention of New Zealand Parliament as well as multi-instrumentalist legend, Tiki Taane. An album from this collaboration is slated for 2021 with a supporting tour across New Zealand and North America.

Bringing together old school and new wave hip hop, dance music and now heavy hitting rock stylings, Hoody is known for his energetic performances and his wide range of both lyric writing and vocal styles. Hoody Time has garnered support from hip hop legends like Talib Kweli and dance music greats such as Robin Schulz, Bingo Players & Dannic. With millions of streams across platforms and a constant stream of releases and touring, Hoody Time is sure to leave a lasting impression on music.
