The Hotrats are set to release an album of cover songs from some of their favourite Artists. The Beatles song Drive My Car was used in a fragrance advert featuring Sienna Miller. 2. The Hot Rats were a short-lived five piece rock band formed in Tokyo, Japan in 2008 by former Les Incompétents bassist Olli Rose and Japanese-born vocalist Taishiro Fujita. Fujita and Rose wrote songs in a combination of Japanese and English, with influences ranging from UK indie rock to American urban music, with a bit of traditional Japanese Enka thrown in. The band split when Rose returned to England the same year but the possibility of reforming has not been ruled-out. All of the band’s recordings, produced by Olli Rose, can be streamed or downloaded for free at the official website, http://thehotrats.googlepages.com/ |
