PRESS: We are a Hot Tip in the August issue of BlowBack magazine:
The Black Tulips have certainly come up with a name that expresses their music wonderfully. Imagine a flower that boasts unique spiritual energy and beauty but also a touch of the dark and malevolent. The Black Tulips by name and by nature then. Haunting keyboard effects run through from the beginning of The Dogs' Home, and melodic guitar riffs brought to us by Lord Fuxley culminate in something special in Lie Detector. Front woman Alexandra's deep, gruff voice provides a dramatic emphasis and an intense backbone. This is sultry rock that's more than just a little addictive. A BlowBack fave.
