HAIM
When: 14th July 2022
Location: OVO Hydro
HAIM, the LA sister act deliver their most revealing songs yet with their latest tour. Coming to Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on the 14th July 2022.
The sister trio HAIM have been cultivating their soft indie rock sound. Celebrating their sunny San Fernando Valley roots for more than a decade. Often compared to Fleetwood Mac and Wilson Phillips, they’re a band with an innate ability to craft music.
Born and raised in Southern California, Este, Danielle and Alana Haim grew up in a musical family. Having learned multiple instruments from an early age, they performed with their parents, Mordechai and Donna, as Rockinhaim. More a fun family activity than a serious band, Rockinhaim played songs like Brown Eyed Girl, Mustang Sally and Proud Mary. At charity events and even in a deli where they were paid in matzah ball soup.
For a short time in 2005, elder siblings Este and Danielle joined the all-girl pop band Valli Girls. But by 2007 the Haim sisters were writing songs together and performing without their parents. They booked their first show as HAIM at a clown museum.
Their debut album
Their debut album, Days Are Gone, came out in 2013. Widely praised, it boasts a bright and breezy collection of songs. From the titular track to Falling and If I Could Change Your Mind. Mixing SoCal dreaminess with defiance and reckless abandon. In the years that followed the sisters supported, collaborated and developed friendships with artists like Stevie Nicks. As well as Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift.
In 2017 HAIM released their sophomore album Something To Tell You, which has a bittersweet edge lyrically while balancing elements of soft rock and R&B. The album’s opening track, Want You Back, became a huge hit, which was made even more popular by the cool video they filmed singing, dancing and strutting down LA’s iconic Ventura Boulevard.
To promote Something To Tell You, HAIM set off in 2018 on their Sister Sister Sister headlining concert tour which included a UK leg.
The sister act returned in June 2020 with their third studio album, Women In Music Pt. III. Showcasing their sophisticated musicality, the songs are embedded with everything from hip hop to funk and rock. In addition the album contains three bonus tracks – Summer Girl, Now I’m In It and the stripped back, tear-inducing ballad Hallelujah that weaves together three stories of strong sisterly love.
Later that summer, they announced The One More HAIM UK Tour in support of WIMPIII stopping at arenas across the country. In August 2021, HAIM confirmed that all their indoor dates would be moving to July 2022.
