The Hooks formed in 2002 in Sligo, Ireland, before relocating to San Francisco in 2004. Over the years, they’ve built a dedicated following with their evocative blend of Irish folk sensibilities and indie rock energy. Widely covered by the SF press and a two-time Rock the Gates Summer Fleadh main act at the United Irish Cultural Center in San Francisco, The Hooks have carved out a distinct sound that resonates with listeners who crave sincerity and melodic immediacy.
