Hot Live Guys

You wanna piece of the action? The Hot Live Guys bring the action. They are a rock �n� roll guitar terrorist squad with nothing on their minds but bringing the party to the people and making the collective masses shake their asses to the frenzied attack which is a Hot Live Guys show.

The quartet of 20-something Winnipeggers have been making a huge noise in their hometown since solidifying their lineup in 2002. In that time they have opened for such notable acts as The Supersuckers, Von Zippers, C�mon, Tricky Woo, Forbidden Dimension and The Illuminati.

Live they are a force to be reckoned with mightier than any trailer park destroying hurricane.

If you want blood, this band has got it.

But they are more than a spectacle � the Hot Live Guys can pen a song. They have the uncanny knack to write sexually charged anthems filled with infectious riffage. Now they are ready to send the party home with their new eight-song EP, Robbin� a Bank, released on high-octane label Transistor 66. This ain�t no washed over retread of the same old grunge; this is the true spirit of what made rock dangerous in the first place. If spins of their past releases on local university stations UMFM and CKUW are any indication, Robbin� a Bank should dominate the airwaves this summer and have soccer moms everywhere singing along to tracks like Night Danger, Sock It To Me and Soviet Red.

They have also made members of the local media take notice.

The Hot Live Guys were named one of the Top 30 Winnipeg bands of all time by the Winnipeg Sun in 2005, chosen as one of 10 local bands to watch in 2006 by the Winnipeg Free Press and were dubbed one of the best live Winnipeg bands by both publications.
