THE HIVES ANNOUNCE FIRST-EVER LIVE FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITY FOR FAN COVER BANDS AROUND THE WORLD

Last week, The Hives wrapped their sold-out North American tour and are currently on tour in LATAM, breaking ground as the first Western band to perform in Venezuela in over 10 years. Today, the group announces The Hives Franchise, a call to fan cover bands around the world to throw their own Hives shows. Fans can sign up for more information HERE.

The band says,
“THE HIVES FRANCHISE NEEDS YOU
We have arrived at a point where The Hives can no longer keep up with public demand for concerts.
This is where you come in.
Help us create a world where
The Hives are playing in every city, all the time. Let’s make business together and rock’n’roll.
Sign up now and register your interest.
Many rewards wait in store.
We have spoken”

 ​​In the twenty-five years since The Hives exploded around the world, they have sold out stadiums and shared stages with everyone from AC/DC to The Rolling Stones. SPIN calls The Hives “the best live band on the planet” and Howlin’ Pelle “the greatest frontman in rock,” and the BBC dubbed the band “a force of nature.” Rolling Stone named Veni Vidi Vicious one of the Top 100 Albums of the decade and “Hate To Say I Told You So” earned a spot on Pitchfork’s Top 500 Songs of the 2000s. They have sold millions of albums worldwide with multiple RIAA Gold certifications. In the time since Lex Hives, the band has released 2019’s double A-side “I’m Alive”/“Good Samaritan” as well as a live album via Third Man Records and embarked on a series of global tours. The Death Of Randy Fitzsimmons marks a true renaissance.
