The Ark-Tones recently released their 2nd full length album, Love You to Life, August 2017, and they will be hitting the road, spreading the gospel of American music wherever they go.

Hope was featured on the cover of UK Rock n’ Roll magazine in March 2015, and New York’s Ulster Magazine in March 2016.
