Rising Hastings three-piece HotWax today release ‘Treasure’, their first single since signing to Marathon Artists, home of Courtney Barnett, Pond, and more. At just 18 years old, the band is already dominating local scenes in the South East and will embark on a mini UK tour this month before joining Pearl Hearts on tour this spring and playing a string of summer festivals including Mad Cool and All Points East alongside The Strokes and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. The explosive ‘Treasure’ is accompanied by an official video and is taken from the band’s forthcoming debut EP - more info to follow soon.

Raw punk powerhouse HotWax are ripping up the template and ripping up stages across the UK. With only a handful of self released tracks out, Tallulah, Lola & Alfie, having recently left school, are already confirmed to share festival stages with Queens of the Stone Age, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Strokes this summer. Their rarified live energy and sound has won the support of Nova Twins, Wolf Alice, Jack Saunders and caught the eye of Celine creative director Hedi Slimane. HotWax harness the firepower of the grunge pioneers, their songs come armed with mighty choruses, and they possess the imaginative brilliance to stake out a new landscape in guitar music.
