Following a busy late-spring/summer, Ha Ha Tonka is excited to announce a new run of tour dates – including a performance at the upcoming Austin City Limits Music Festival – and the launch of their second FREE single from the album, this time for “Made Example Of.”

Ha Ha Tonka’s recently released album Death of a Decade has been received with both critical acclaim and positive fan response. The Austin Chronicle said, “Death of a Decade sounds more like the birth of an important band”, while the Washington Post made a comparison to another well-known group, “The Missouri quartet is not only authentically scruffy, it tears at the heart of American roots music with every chord like Mumford only pretends to, and its new record, Death of a Decade, basically oozes passion for the craft.” Additionally, MTV included the band in their new music program on The Seven, NPR Music included “Usual Suspects” as a Song of the Day, and Anthony Bourdain even featured them on an Ozarks episode of “No Reservations.”
