Ha Ha Tonka (and, to a certain degree, Missouri) are plugged by The Huffington Post

Ha Ha Tonka — the Springfield, Missouri band that plays around these parts quite often — originally hails from the Ozarks. In addition to going on tour — they’ll be at RecordBar on April 23 — and hanging out with Anthony Bourdain, the band members also chatted with The Huffington Post the other day. Looks like HuffPo has some nice things to say about the alt-country band and its homeland:

In a land perhaps unfairly identified with cooking crystal meth and squirrel meat pie, it’s refreshing to see a band successfully emerge with good taste (and good vibrations) intact while embracing their heritage.

Not too shabby, eh?
