Details:
Formed in late ‘04, the Detroit based band Hotness has been meticulously fine-tuning their sound and live show much akin to a classic car buff that restores their 70’s Mustang. Influenced by those that came before such as The Faces, Humble Pie, T-Rex, Zeppelin and Queen, they long not to reinvent the wheel, but to simply put some kick ass rims on it. Aimed at keeping Detroit’s “ball of trend-setting ingenuity” in motion they released their first EP – We’re Taking Over – in the summer of ''05.
Noteworthy achievements to date include: being featured on PBS in an episode of Rock and Roll Safari in January 2007. The show, produced by Can You Hear Me TV, is a documentary featuring “live concert footage and interviews with some of the local scene''s top independent talent” (Rachel May - The Detroit Free Press, 1/5/07). Hotness also wrote a track specifically for The Sweet Sounds of Detroit Volume One compilation, which has also been featured on PBS and was nominated for a 2007 Detroit Music Award.
Newly armed with the addition of a Hammond organ, this is their first LP - produced by Jim Diamond (White Stripes/The Sights/Electric Six).
-*-*-*- Press and Reviews -*-*-*-
"Pedal-to-the-metal solos and rough, unremitting percussion, bring-the-house-down-blues-rock with a sexy swagger between the dark druggy allure of the Lizard King, the smokey glam-poeticism of Mark Bolan and the virulent bravado of Zeppelin; stellar debut LP, well produced, aptly capturing the explosive energy of their ''70s-blues-rock revival."
- J. Milo of Real Detroit Weekly
"[...] Though it''s the group''s first LP, "3rd Time''s a Charm" explodes with rock-veteran prowess."
- Rachel May of The Detroit Free Press
"[...] In my mind, this CD is a well-produced, well-written, homage to all that is & was great, in that down-and-dirty, my woman left me, but there are others out there, musical anarchy that has been the last 50 years of Rock-and-Roll."

"[...] They are a band that are not afraid to put it out all out there with a force that can knock the wind right out of you time and time again with every listen. Quite frankly there are very few younger rock bands that can take those classic elements and master them near flawlessly on a debut release."
- Jere of Shipwreck Island Studios
"Hotness put it all out there, putting on a performance well worth drive across town. Their heavy blues driven rock & roll will have you wishing that you never got rid of that green ’71 Mustang your girlfriend hated. These guys play the kind of music that would make Joe Cocker blush, knowing theses guys were on his heals."
- Kevin Killough of myFoxDetroit
