Biography
TWO BANDS called "The Hoovers"
1. Early 90s band from Liverpool (UK) with an album produced by Ian Broudie (Lightening Seeds) called "Tied Up and Tickled" released on The Farm Label. The band had a jangly, slightly baggy and folk sound.
2. The Californian Two-Tone Ska band The Hoovers were led by Paul Whiting. Whiting had moved to the US from London England and carried his accent with him making them the only California ska band that sounded legitimately like the British ska bands of that time. Their entire career unfortunately produced only one L.P. - Skin and Blisters and one E.P. - Smut and Class. Their sound was similiar to the english Two-tone bands, especially Madness, and was actually considered being signed to the label.
