In
1975 four teenage kids were signed to Island
Records -
they called themselves ‘Eddie and the
Hot Rods’ they played faster, tougher,
wilder and louder than any
other band of the time and went on to tour
the world producing four top 40 hit records
including the worldwide smash hit ‘Do
anything you wanna do’
They helped influence bands such as The Sex
Pistols, The Undertones, and The 101ers (who
went on to be The Clash) and played a major
part in the birth of the 'Punk Rock’
revolution. In 2000 lead singer Barrie Masters
was asked to take part in a major UK tour
so he put together a reconditioned fleet of
Hotrods and off they roared, the response
was so good that the band have been in constant
demand since then. The Hot Rods are once again
firing on all cylinders! A European and American
tour plus a new record distribution deal in
the UK has ensured that the future is bright
for the band who undeniably made an impact
in the birth of punk rock. Guaranteed to leave
you shouting for more!
