| Hi-octane neon-clad sensations The Hot Damn! have dropped a new video for their “morning-after-the-night-before”-inspired party anthem ‘About Last Night’. The unapologetically chaotic video follows the band in full technicolour misadventure – from getting trapped in a portaloo, losing clothes (and dignity!), face-planting a paddling pool, and literally binning themselves… just a standard night out for The Hot Damn! The video lands just in time to set the mood for their upcoming UK tour which kicks off on Saturday 4th October in Matlock Bath, and barrels through Southampton, Bristol, Blackpool, Leeds, Edinburgh, wrapping up in Wolverhampton on 12th October. Speaking of the track, singer-guitarist Gill Montgomery proclaims:“‘About Last Night’ is the soundtrack to your bad decisions – but the kind you’ll laugh about later. It’s cheeky, messy, and probably the reason you’re texting your ex at 2AM. Think of it as the confession booth for everything you probably shouldn’t admit… but secretly love to. This isn’t a love song – it’s a hungover diary entry with a killer hook, made for anyone who’s ever woken up wondering what the hell happened.” Drummer Josie O’Toole adds: “The idea for the video was actually inspired by Coldplay, of all people! In their video for ‘The Scientist’ the storyline plays out in reverse using backwards footage. We thought the same principle could work beautifully for us; telling the tale of a (very good) night out by starting at the end and working back through the chaos to how it all began – it makes for some interesting viewing – and it’s all based on true events! Big ups to The Duke in Marlow, and D&P Luxury Toilets for helping us recreate those magical memories.” Watch The Hot Damn!’s big night out here: About Last Night (official video): https://youtu.be/REk2cIgz1e4 |
| ‘About Last Night’ showcases The Hot Damn!’s mischievous streak and punkier edge – all raw power, attitude and tongue-in-cheek harmony. And yes, they’ve even managed to turn their favourite four-syllable expletive into a three-part singalong! The track is lifted from the band’s critically acclaimed debut album, Dancing on the Milky Way, which dropped in September 2024 and rocketed to #3 on the UK Rock Chart. Hailing from Marlow, Buckinghamshire, The Hot Damn! exploded onto the scene in 2021, forged from the flames of The Amorettes and Tequila Mockingbyrd. The powerhouse line-up brings together Gill Montgomery (The Amorettes), Josie O’Toole (Tequila Mockingbyrd), Laurie Buchanan (Aaron Buchanan and the Cult Classics) and Lzi Hayes (New Device / Sophie Lloyd band). Since then, they’ve lit up stages across the UK and Europe with their uniquely colourful brand of party rock, sharing bills with D-A-D, Fozzy, Hayseed Dixie, and storming festivals including Steelhouse, Maid of Stone, Planet Rockstock and Stonedead. After their UK tour wraps, the band will head back to Europe as special guests of Massive Wagons. Their infectious hooks have landed them A-list radio support on Planet Rock, Kerrang!, Primordial in the UK, plus Radio BOB! in Germany. Recent single Jukebox on the Radio scored a Classic Rock ‘Track of the Week‘ nomination and was handpicked by the legendary late Johnnie Walker for his BBC Radio 2 Rock Show – a true stamp of rock royalty approval.
