Hi-octane, badass neon-clad British rockers The Hot Damn! announced as main support for Danish band D.A.D. this winter, frontwoman Gill Montgomery enthuses: “ARE YOU SITTING COMFORTABLY?! We are BUZZING to announce our very first European tour this November as special guests to D.A.D! It’s a dream come true to hit the road with these legends and take our new album (and our unicorns) to some of the most legendary stages in Germany and Switzerland. We’re coming in hot, and we cannot wait to bring our own magic sprinkles to Disneyland!!!”
These tour dates will follow hot on the heels of their own Dancing on the Milky Way album UK tour which runs through the first half of November (Full tour dates below and at www.thehotdamn.com). The band have also just announced two instore dates plus an album release show on the day their debut record drops, September 27th.
Last week, coinciding with the latest single “Can You Hear Me Now?” the band pledged to always have free earplugs available on the merch desk at any Hot Damn! show.
Guitarist Laurie Buchanan emphasizing the importance of ear protection:
“Since I was a kid, it’s been drilled into me—EARPLUGS are a MUST! Whether it’s sound check, rehearsal, or the real deal, protecting your ears is non-negotiable, especially for us musicians! No one wants to be the one who can’t tune by ear anymore (bad tone alert!). That’s why we at The Hot Damn! are teaming up with Help Musicians to spread the word about their hearing protection scheme, and we’re making sure we’ve always got free earplugs available for punters at our shows too! Whether it’s shielding your ears from nasty frequencies—or just from our music—we’ve got you covered.”
The band presented latest single Can You Hear Me Now? in support of Help Musicians to amplify the message of hearing protection through their program. Learn more about the initiative here.
Today the band release an acoustic version of Can You Hear Me Now? that you can listen to without earplugs! >>> Check it out:
For more acoustic Hot Damn! the band will play two instore acoustic shows in support their debut album at HMV in September. Bassist Lzi Hayes states “We are absolutely over the moon to bring the Hot Damn! “Unplugged” experience to HMV for a couple of extra special in-store acoustic sets. We can’t wait to share this epic occasion with everyone so close we can high-five them! It’s going to be EMOSH!”
