Hooveriii

Band,
Rock and Electronic

HooverIII (pronounced "Hoover 3"), originally stylized as Hoover III, started out as a solo project for Bert Hoover. Bert wrote and performed all songs prior to the release of their self-titled album and Guillotine single in 2018. During this solo period, live shows would consist of a drum machine, Bert on guitar and vocals and Erik Lake (2), a bandmate from Jesus Sons, taking on bass duties. After a while, Jeff Fribourg was brought in as keyboard/synth player for live shows. Prior to the release of the self-titled album a full band was formed and the written name seemed to change from Hoover III to HooverIII. The full band now includes Bert still on guitar and vocals, Jeff still on synths, Gabe Flores on guitar, vocals, and sax, Kaz Mirblouk on bass, bass synth, and vocals, and Shaughnessy Starr on drums for their self-titled album. Some of the early solo tracks utilizing the drum machine were reworked and included on the self-titled album. The first cassette release, Quest for Blood, is a compilation of all but two tracks from the initial digital-only releases Vol. I, Vol. II, Vol. III, and Vol. IV, which were removed from Bandcamp after releasing the cassette and associated digital album. Quest for Blood and all subsequent releases remain available digitally, and sometimes physically, via Bandcamp.
