The Hot Damn! Announce New Album ‘Dancing on the Milky Way’

With a liberal use of the cowbell, an insistent groove, and an incredibly catchy chorus, “Jukebox on The Radio” heralds the arrival of The Hot Damn!’s much-anticipated debut album. A hyperactive, uber-positive mash-up of pop melodies, punk aggression and rock n roll swagger, The Hot Damn! effortlessly combine party anthems with screw-you-too’s in equal measure in their aptly-titled inaugural record Dancing on the Milky Way, out Friday, September 27th. This ambitious foursome is shooting for the stars and makes no apologies for who they are and what they stand for.

Most of the record was recorded in Melbourne, Australia with producer Ricki Rae (Electric Mary, Massive), and Doncaster, UK with Matt Elliss (Massive Wagons, Black Spiders).

Frontwoman Gill Montgomery proclaims:

“People of planet earth! Make some space in your ear holes! Because things are about to get SPICY! Our first love child Dancing on the Milky Way will be dropping into your laps this coming September! So, buckle up buttercups, you won’t be getting rid of these earworms as easily as Kevin Bacon did in Tremors.”

Drummer Josie O’Toole continues:

“This record has been lovingly crafted over several turbulent years of mad highs, mega lows, and everything in between. The result is 100% reflective of our collective journey so far and our respective influences. Rock-meets-pop-meets-punk-meets-disco to create something I would describe as interesting, relatable but, most of all, FUN! Welcome The Hot Damn! party!”

Based in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, The Hot Damn! burst onto the UK circuit in 2021. Formed from the ashes of bands The Amorettes and Tequila Mockingbyrd, the band boasts the talents of Gill Montgomery (The Amorettes), Josie O’Toole (Tequila Mockingbyrd), Laurie Buchanan (Aaron Buchanan and the Cult Classics) and Lzi Hayes (New Device and the Sophie Lloyd band).

The Hot Damn! have completed multiple UK tours supporting the likes of Fozzy and Hayseed Dixie as well as appearing at Steelhouse, Maid of Stone, Planet Rockstock and Stonedead festivals.
