>>> HOT BEDS <<<
Andy and Lena formed Hot Beds to manufacture tales of urban paranoia and claustrophobic modern existence for the world at large. Employing elements of rock and electro with a pop sensibility Hot Beds wrap their alternative vision in songs ready for the dancefloor and radio as much as through headphones in bedrooms. Their live show, complete with projections and stage performance, has been highlighted by many as a must see.
Since the summer of 2009, Hot Beds have had no less than 4 top ten hits on the Tourdates UK Unsigned Chart. "Christmas Started in October", topped the Christmas chart of 2009 and when "Leave Everything" hit No.1 it stayed there for an unprecedented five weeks. Remixes of Frantic and Stop Forgiving also performed well.
Hot Beds regularly receive airplay on various regional radio stations, internet broadcasts and well regarded music podcasts, where they have also been interviewed. They have appeared on several CD and vinyl compilation albums and are currently recording their forthcoming album, due out this summer.

What more can be said about them that hasn't already been said? They're foxy, they're sassy and they perform naked. It's not entirely pleasant, but then great art isn't meant to be. Actually it makes me sick. BLEEUUURRGHH! That's me being sick that is! Gross, it's all in my pubes. You wanna help clean up? I thought so. I love you too. Think Kriss Akabusi in a blender near Haverford West.

Remodel are a guitar band, this is obvious by virtue of the fact they have a guitar player. They are also a pop band, but pop in the sense of bands like the Who, The Smiths and blur. Like all classic British pop bands they are a fourpiece.
Frontman Mr Leigh Swinn is quite tall and dark, the sort people see in crystal balls. Always smartly attired and often caustic with his words.
Guitarist Mr Mark Heffernan is small and angry. He likes noise and cricket. He is also fond of tea.
Mr Adam Knight, bass, is a skyscraper, he is the young buck of the band. He uses his height to great advantage and is easily found in a crowd. Often he depends on the kindness of strangers.
Mr Ian Fourie plays a mean drumkit and spends days gazing at the sky under northern clouds, prophesising the end of the world.
Exiled Salopians to a man, they plough their own Elysian Fields and wait for their seeds to germinate.

These guys are so fucking phenomenal that I have absolutely no idea who they are! One of them might be called Thomas! SHEEEEEE-IT!
