Hotpants Romance It'S A Heatwave CD

Three girls! Three years! Three chords! Hotpants Romance debut album 'It's a Heatwave' is shouty, shambolic, garage pop that wears it's heart on it's sleeve. On the 14th February 2005 Hotpants Romance formed two hours before their first gig, with a vow to play once a year on Valentines Day, after a storming two and a half song set the audience wanted more. The original plan was dropped in favor of playing anywhere and everywhere that Anyone would have them. The rest of 2005 had their first tape 'The Greatest Hits' was released on Manchester DIY label Soft Presents and the 50 copies quickly sold out. Gigs were played all around the UK with many amazing bands, winning over audiences with energetic and shambolic live shows. 2006 had Hotpants Romance playing more shows and releasing their demo EP titled "Lucky 6". In 2007 things started to really come together when the girls were able to tour with their post punk heroes the Nightingales, only to be followed by a support slot for the Ting Tings UK tour. In 2008 after a win on a horse called Purple Moon, Nightingale Robert Lloyd is able to release the first Hotpants Romance album on his Big Print label. 'It's a Heatwave' crashed into the world, catching the attention of music press and radio stations to great critical acclaim. The girls booked a short US East Coast tour with Christie and Emily. They are currently working on songs for a 7" on Cherryade Records in the UK, and getting ready for a performance at this years' Athens PopFest in Athens, Georgia, having their "It's a Heatwave" released on Happy Happy Birthday to Me Records in the states, and a 2 week South East US tour with new label-mates Cars Can Be Blue.
