Hot Mulligan at Deep Ellum Art Co.

Once Hot Mulligan got to the point of touring full-time—playing 100 or 150 shows a year—their debut album, 2018’s Pilot, had already come out. As the band toured for the next two years, up until Covid-19 grounded all live shows, they played the songs from that album and their prior EPs…a lot. Hot Mulligan’s second studio album, you’ll be fine, was released on March 6, 2020, weeks before the pandemic flipped the industry on its head. The foursome—lead vocalist Tades Sanville, backing vocalist and rhythm guitarist Chris Freeman, lead guitarist Ryan Malicsi, and drummer Brandon Blakeley—were among a stable of burgeoning Michigan-based bands (Dogleg, Forest Green, Charmer) on the verge of a national breakout.
