Hot Seconds are a Brooklyn / New York City-based 5-piece indie-rock outfit formed in 2007 that plays fuzzed out, Brit-infused indie rock with catchy hooks that are both danceable and memorable. For fans of Kasabian, Oasis, Charlatans, Arctic Monkeys, Blur, Doves, and all things Manchester. The band features former members of, among others, Front 242, Spill, Astronaut, and superjuice. Citing a wide array of Brit-Pop/Rock influences, their sound somehow manages to meld the urgency/street-smart storytelling of The Clash, the aural collage/majestic grandeur of Spiritualized as well as the raw, funked-up, immediacy of Primal Scream, tied together with a love of all things Manchester. Members include James Love (vocals, guitar), Eran Westwood (guitars/production), Bob Troia (bass), Ian Hudgins (drums), and Marcel Simoneau (keyboards).
