Rockers Hot Snakes are back on the road after releasing their 2018 album Jericho Sirens, a melodic, rock-n-roll thrill ride. After performing at the Turf Club Friday night, the vitalized band stopped in to The Current for a St. Patrick's Day in-studio.

During the session, Hot Snakes ripped through three songs from the new album. Along the way, they got to chat with Mac Wilson about the Hot Snakes family tree, the idea of a "death doula," and the band's connection with onetime Minnesota man Dave Gardner.

Use the audio player above to listen to the full session.
