HotWax are a band set on experiencing life at its most intense
In the past two years, the Hastings-via-Brighton trio - comprising Tallulah Sim-Savage (vocals/guitar), Lola Sam (bass) and Alfie Sayers (drums) - have toured the world over, clocking up over 150 dates, including shows with Royal Blood and Frank Carter, and major festival appearances at Reading & Leeds and All Points East. Out of all this comes debut album Hot Shock (due March 7 via Marathon Artists), a record of adrenaline- jolted anthems about abandoning fear and leaping boldly towards the future.
HotWax worked with an all-female production team at the prestigious RAK studios, Catherine Marks (Boygenius, Wolf Alice) and Steph Marziano (Hayley Williams, Let's Eat Grandma), as well as additional recording with Stella Mozgawa of Warpaint in Joshua Tree, California.
These songs were made to be played to a crowd, loud and with abandon. But there's also a beating pulse of vulnerability underscoring the album. It's an honest, moving sentiment sure to propel HotWax towards becoming the UK's next big crossover rock act - and beyond.
"Britain's most thrilling and fiercely confident new rockers" - NME
"they're a total inspiration - wicked songwriting, stunning stage presence, and a sheer, raw, couldn't-give-a-flying attitude that punches you to the gut." - Clash
